Must have been the early 80's Stewart. The radomes were part of the USA's cold war Ballistic Missile Early Warning Station network and were replaced between 1989-1992 with a tetrahedron pyramid structure. ![[Linked Image]](https://www.tm-img.com/images/2020/09/16/1280px-RAF_Fylingdales_Radar.md.jpg)

Yes. A169 good. A171 hopeless.
Fetched a woman’s car out of a ditch for her yesterday. It all ‘appens oop ’ere.

Was up that way a month or so ago although in the Mini. Stayed at Appleby-in-Westmorland on the A66, surprisingly easy/quick run from Norfolk. A66 handy for the remote Tan Hill Inn as well.

The A66 is great.
Today I tested the GPS speedo I bought. So a run around the Felixstowe area. The speedo is better than nothing but doesn't like rapid turns or accelration/ deceleration.

Loads in Suffolk . I am guessing councils need the funds. Ditto parking wardens ( Felixstowe has gone from 1 to 4) & free car parks now charging
