Surrey Heath Cast: notes from the 'Blue Wall'

Atlantic adventures; weaponising ULEZ; and the great Camberley stink.

August 06, 2023 • Alasdair Pinkerton & Jacqui Hames • Season 1 • Episode 16

**NEW EPISODE OUT NOW: ATLANTIC ADVENTURES; WEAPONISING ULEZ; AND THE GREAT CAMBERLEY STINK.**

In this end-of-season special episode, Jacqui and Al are joined by inspirational Atlantic rowers (and Surrey Heath residents) Andy Hodgson and Rosalind Chaston, who tell us all about their recently-completed voyage from Gran Canaria to Barbados, undertaken entirely under their own steam over 46 days and in a rowing boat that was no more than 7 metres from bow to stern. https://www.atlanticescapade.com/

As well as being an extraordinary feat of endurance, Andy and Rosalind's adventure raised funds for two wonderful charities - the Blue Marine Foundation and the RNLI. Donations can still be made via their Just Giving page: https://www.justgiving.com/team/atlanticescapade

We also talk about the "great Thames Water stink" currently blighting the lives of Camberley residents and businesses, plus the newly-released report that exposes social media manipulation during the recent Uxbridge by-election and the weaponisation of the ULEZ issue.

Finally, we take our regular look at Al's diary...

We're now taking a short summer break, but will return with a new season of Surrey Heath Cast beginning on 31st August.
