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.
