It does seem to be missing, although there is quite a lot of sand on the web-cam. Maybe Eggy can take a photo for us.

Windy day in Arillas, but I can now see the bench, think some of the sand has gone from the web cam.

I found the bench.
We are working hard to restore it , change the bolts with new stainless, paint it with a special coat and soon it will be back on the pier.

Yammas,

LOL...don't get too comfortable lying there Dimitris..it's too tempting for Spiro and come along to jump on top of you :-)

Thanks for the photos and for making sure the bench will withstand another year of forumsters b*ms :-o :-)

Poor Dimitris, so tired he fell asleep while helping to restore the bench. ;)

Thanks to everyone who helped, can't wait to sit on it again, thanks for the photos as well. See you all soon.

There will be many local buttocks, until it's safe return to it's rightful place, not knowing where to position or rest on the jetty.

But.... this short term pain to those posteriors will soon turn to long term enjoyment for many a cheek or two!

And now I can sleep at night knowing it is in good hands..........
......... (I mean the bench not my **** - We won't go there!!!)

Trying hard not to post in everything, and fail again. I loved the pics, they sure brought a big smile to my face. Will hear all about it from Spiros and Dimitris in July, when my **** will find it/them selves  plonked on it at some point (probably the middle of the night...)

Well negotiated Negg, think we all knew what **** really stood for!!! But rear willl do.

Well as of 10:45am BST you would be lucky to see the bench if it was 3 times the size and painted bright orange. Has the w e b c a m been transported in time to a easter bank holiday in Whitley Bay?

Even the jetty seems to have disappeared, the weather looks awful.
