Rather delayed post ..I have no idea where the past few months have gone really! Two days ago Hubby and I decided if it was nice to go out to the beach on his next day off , as all we do is stay in and do housework really in winter on his day off. "Lets have fun in winter!" In our madness we decided a trip to the beach was in order. Freezing but huge fun and we had a little friend to come with us , Chips, hot choccy, and bringing home smelly buckets of treasures! Some Identification went on. Next time we go I will start carrying small bags of water and plaster of Paris for our traking work and gather seaweed to press and identify. Can't wait for summer!
