Beware of Re Bar on Alderney approach

If you are landing at Alderney, try to land on the runway (unlike picture one, don't worry they where all fine). But if you are going to land short of the runway try your very hardest not to land on the approach lights as even though they are exquisitely made in very light weight materials, some complete idiot has reinforced the surrounding fence with 30kg wrist sized re bar at pilot leg height ...Doh! (as Homer Simpson would say).
