I'm lucky enough to live in Cornwall and I'd never heard of the lego thing, very interesting!
- BgSpnnrs 12y agoI remember the Napoli too, went and had a look out of curiosity. Also not heard of this Lego incident! Of course shipwrecks, and even wreckers have an illustrious history down here.
- timthorn 12y agoI've visited Branscombe every year of my life - we've a family connection. It used to be a fairly quiet but known seaside location, but ever since Napoli it has been much busier. I assume it's all those people who went and had a look and decided it was a pretty place to visit...
