2011 Beach Workshop

After last years heavy rain, and the preceding years of cold wind and light showers, today Bournemouth lived up to its reputation with a 27C heat wave! Crowded beaches meant a slightly reduced ambition to the usual structures and a sandcastle competition of the beach between the two piers.
