They are amazing to watch from close by. I remember thinking at that time that it would be great to live there. I believe in one of them there is a hotel and I hope I can stay there at least once in my life.</p> I actually sailed in the Solent very close to these fortesses.

I think he came unstuck because he stopped paying taxes or declared war on the USA or something.
