Facing the sea.

A couple stands on Shoreham Beach facing the waves.

Quite proud of this:

Hello, Big Sur.

(That sounds like something from a really bad prison movie: “Jim, if you want to survive in here, you need to keep Big Sur happy…”)

Today’s experiment: my Canon M-series camera as webcam…

A seashell on Shoreham Beach

Met this chap on our beach walk today. Seemed nice enough, but not very talkative.

A figure made of seaweed, driftwood and old sunglasses.

It’s not exactly puzzling why we chose to live here, is it?

There’s something utterly magical to me about beaches in the off season, when it’s just us die hards out there…

Have to say - I wasn’t expecting to be spending time in A&E on the first day of lockdown.

So, lockdown it is, from tonight. I’m very lucky to be living very near to these places. It’s going to be much easier for us than so many others.

Misty, dreich morning in Sussex.

Lovely walk with the girls, despite the dreich weather.

Another day in front of the ring light…

Ah, the BBC’s Autumnwatch. Balm for the soul.

Half term adventures.

I walked up into Old Shoreham yesterday, to pick up some things. It’s interesting seeing the traces of the old village concealed within more modern housing.
