ON CONFESSION OF ERROR
2Per curiam
As the state concedes, the trial court plainly erred in basing the instant departure sentence upon additional grounds after we held all four reasons originally assigned for departure invalid in Watkins v. State, 498 So.2d 576 (Fla. 3d DCA 1986). Shull v. Dugger, 515 So.2d 748 (Fla.1987). Accordingly, the sentence is again reversed and the cause remanded for resentencing within the guidelines.
