The council are spending £164,000 removing pebbles from the beach. One of
the reasons given was that children could fall and hurt themselves on
them. So on your point, I wholeheartedly agree!

You have to be having a laugh!

The pebbles on the beaches around here are protected (part of the Jurassic
Coast) and it is illegal to remove them or even take one home (though many
do).

I seem to remember a problem with Bournemouth council using sand cleaners
which were destroying the ecology and biodiversity of the beach. Are they
still doing that?
