Beware the zealous security guard!
Title:  Beware the zealous security guard!
Description:  The security guard on the gate of the port (which I didn't try and get into) tried to stop me from taking this. I did ask him if I was doing anything illegal (which he agreed I wasn't) and I did point out I was on a public road but he really didn't want me to take this photo (and its not that its a great photo). As a show of his "power" his parting shot was to take a photo of my car and number plate - I await the knock on the door.....
