Spent today in Lowestoft and the surrounding area working on a project for the Geography Collective.
As part of the trip, I visited the Eastern-most point of the UK: at Ness Point in Lowestoft.
There was a bit of a fret on, so the wind turbine blades were looming in and out of the murk...
Parked up next to the point was a green vehicle, and it turned out that the drivers were doing an event to raise money for the Royal British Legion.
The two guys: John Pomeroy and John Poole are driving a full circuit around the UK: a journey of 3700 miles.
Their vehicle is a 1951 Austin Devon ( A40 Pick Up) registration NHY343 in a rather nice British Racing Green livery and a cream logo of " Wells & Warminster - M&P Garages ". This was not their original choice of vehicle, which you can read about on the website below.
They are travelling anti-clockwise around the UK, and started in Warminster, before heading for Poole to start their journey - a map of their route is shown below.
Visit the website which is recording their adventures HERE, and make sure that you download a sponsor form and support their efforts - I did :)
Good luck for the rest of the journey !
