This morning it was quite bright but the wind has been pretty awful today. After the shoe less spell yesterday I decided to try and give it a go and walk down to the front barefoot. I made a flask and also put a pair of shoes in my rucksack just in case! Strangely, although the pavements are a bit rough in parts and stony, the pain in my ankle was not quite as bad and I have always liked being barefoot, so will see how it goes. The castle end of the beach as I arrived.

I haven't taken a picture of the beach huts for a while.

Looking along the beach, I did paddle and I didn't have to take my shoes off!

A picture of seaweed, some different colours in this bunch.

Took this shot while I was siting having the first drink from my flask.

I walked back through the park and had my second drink there.

I got back home okay and didn't resort to the shoes. I have done a bit of cutting and sticking for cards this afternoon. Went down to get dinner and there was a ring at the door. A parcel, a present from Darren and Tina for me. A brand new, modern Teasmade. I am a very happy bunny. It is even easy to to set as I only have a battery clock usually. I will report on my first cup of tea made for me while I am in bed tomorrow! Have just finished watching Strictly. Very high standard this year, I think it will be a great series.
