Another chapter draughted tonight. If you squint closely at the photo above, you can just about make out me, obscured behind a wave. Anyway, I was writing about this very spot, the Needles. They are to be found at the western point of the Isle of Wight and they are a ridge of knife-edge chalk stacks, with an impressive lighthouse perched right at the end.
The ‘Needles’ title seems to fit them perfectly, but that’s not actually why they got the name. There used to be an extra stack, bigger and better than the others…
No, I didn’t know either.
Mark,
Let me know if you want the tidal info for this chapter proof read, it might just be worth double checking it?!

Cheers John, I will indeed be running some stuff by you. I’m particularly hopeless at working with Secondary Port/ Tidal Constant data.
