Welcome to family, friends and visitors. Here you will find interesting (hopefully) pictures of my part of the world, news of our household and probably, long ramblings about anything that catches my interest.

Dry.

We took advantage of a break in the weather to go for a walk. The tide was quite high but it is always good to wander about on the beach breathing in the fresh air.

We watched a coastguard helicopter hovering near the cliff and then sending down a winch-man onto the rocks below. They didn't seem to be rescuing anyone so it was probably only a practise mission.
 It wasn't me kicking up all the sea foam so that it flew through the air, honest.
We had a wander about on the rocks seeing what the tide had brought in before sitting up on a cliff-top bench to have our coffee. The waves were too blown out for surfing but there were a lot of people out walking on Woolacombe beach. We did watch a lone surfer attempting to get out into the better waves but the best he could manage was one 5 second ride.
After our breezy walk we dropped in at Tesco's on the way home but as usual there weren't many bargains. We did get a half price fresh chicken which will last us for several meals.
When we got home we found that Elwen and Squeaky had put aside their differences to snuggle up next to the warm Rayburn chimney.
