Mystery of the Lost 'Bum' - PiPs

Drumburn Viewpoint on the Nith Estuary on the Solway Firth in Dumfries and Galloway. Across from here on the other side of the Solway Firth is the English coastline
On Google Earth the sign on the wall at the entrance to the viewpoint reads
'Drumbumburn Viewpoint 2004', - either an error or we have the strange case of a missing bum!
I guess if it was an error they had to 'Rub it out and start again'

I have therefore added a song by Lynsey Paul and Mike Moran called 'Rock Bottom'
I believe it came second in the Eurovision Song Contest
