And so it begins...

September 16, 2026 - The website is live.

This is quite the milestone for me, I don't have any training in website design so I've had to learn everything as I go. Building the plane, while flying it. I'm happy with how it looks but I'm sure you'll see some changes over the next month or so.

I collected soil from Senlac Hill site of the Battle of Hastings (1066) a few months ago so that I had something to sell from the website when it opened. I should have collected soil from Pevensey beach at the same time. Lesson learned, I hope.

I'll be back in England next month (Oct 2026) and intend to collect sand from Pevensey and sand from the five Normandy D-Day Beaches. If you want to be the first to get your orders fulfilled, go ahead and ask about pre-ordering using the Contact Form.
