. Nothing so sinister, just a random person enjoying their day. It was very busy there yesterday, it’s a popular place.

One of the regulars? dogger-bank or dogger-tunnels is it? What happens in the shadows to the pounding of the tide...

Walked another few miles of the coastal path today…. I’d never been here before which was a nice little find along the way.

I used to holiday on the Llyn Peninsula - even that's overcrowded now - a small Cornwall with beautiful coves for fishing off the rocks when I was younger ....

Take my kayak and paddle board out on the lake quite a bit. I remember about 30 years ago a helicopter crashed into the lake and I think 6 trainee cadets were killed sadly.
