WHAT has happened to Lyme Regis ?
I visited it on Tuesday, July 9.
The last time I went there was after the big storm that devastated the Cobb etc.
It has now become a tourist trap. There is history there - Mary Anning and fossils.
Who is responsible for turning Lyme Regis into a tourist trap?
Dorset has come a long way from being a county that people drove through to get to Devon and Cornwall.
The current mayor has put a clock up near the pebble beach.
Is this the best he can do?
Most of the tourists do not understand about the Jurassic Coast and think it is funny when the giant seagulls swoop down and take take the ice creams that tourists have paid for and laughter when the ices are eaten by the gulls.
This is not real life. On the other hand, maybe it is.
