Off the coast of Dover there's a sandbank called Goodwin Sands. It's a
shifting and treacherous sandbank that lies just below the surface of the water
and has claimed many shipwrecks over the years.
Goodwin Sands only rises above the sea at a couple of very low spring tides
each year.

For me, it's not a question of danger. It's a question of does it make
any sense? Here we have a few rocks sticking out of the ocean and the
only way to inhabit them is to build scaffolding. This is a stupid

operating without first building a platform to create a level
surface, that entity certainly fails any test of common sense.
