Thanks Padi.......
Probably the only thing worth catching there are crabs. There are numerous crab pots hanging off this pier.....
Cheers, Bruce |

I like the picture of the footbridge Bruce. It would have looked even better if there was a person, dog or something walking at the far end.

Your pictures are great as always, Bruce; but greater still is the fact that you've started to repost on this forum.
Thanks for that, JJ

I think we may have covered this in Padi's recent post on the English language and I do emphasize English.

bridge structure.So obviously not designed for cars or trains,but for walking hence a footbridge.All others designed for cars trains etc we call a bridge, or sometimes for trains a viaduct or if it carries a waterway a aqua duct.

What if you were to traverse a footbridge by walking on your hands? Would it then be called a handbridge
I have much to learn about the UK. |

I'll join in on this hijacking...
We call it a sidewalk because it's a walk or path on the side of a road. To our UK bruddas... why do English people say 'warsh' instead of wash? Why do they call the TV a 'tele' when I would think a 'tele' could also be a phone? BTW Bruce, awesome pix! |

Thanks mate! btw, there are plenty of Americans that say "warsh" or otherwise add r to words. Just talk to a New Yorker! Oh..and as far as I can tell, there's a shortened word for almost everything in "British" and they always end in y or ie :) |

Don't even mention New Yorkers... that's a different planet altogether where they speak a number of dialects of some bizarre language. |

If the wooden structure in the picture, dont span the the both banks of
the water,then yes it would be called a pier, or sometimes a jetty, or a landing jetty.
