From mate to chief...


At some point during the past seven days, the support platform and crane have been removed from Boscombe pier, which suggests that work on the refurbishment is near completion (photo). I asked the lone construction worker on the site when the pier would be re-opened to the public. "No idea, chief", was his reply. This differs to my perceived status from last November (18th), when I was referred to as "mate" after asking the same question at the same location. I'm still unsure if that's a promotion, or not.

Spring continues to display its colours here in Dorset, with the tree in my garden beginning to blossom three weeks earlier than usual, due to the unseasonably warm weather.
