leon Posted June 18, 2014 Share Posted June 18, 2014 Doug, you can stay 'firmly on the floor' at Spinnaker tower, but you will be looking straight down. Not good for those who fear heights (daft that as it's hitting the ground that hurts) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
