"Best part of the day." 

Dad would say...

It would soon be sunrise.

OCTOBER 22, SEATON SANDS, HARTLEPOOL.

 Beach Buoy, Borrowed Dog and Another Dog went for a walk. 

Almost unintentionally the ended up on the beach.

Almost...

If they had set off a little earlier they could have made it to Stubborn Dog Stack and back.

As it was it was just a walk by the sea.

Beach Buoy didn't have his beach bag or his Orange Coat.

He felt a little like a secret shopper.

He would write a report later.

This is it.

You are reading it!

They reached the sea front on foot and paw, just before 3 p.m.

They headed to the beach.

It was a glorious afternoon.

Lots of dog walkers walked the water's edge.

Team One Black Ear were walking an afternoon beach too.

They hadn't recognised Beach Buoy in Civvies.

Back to The Esplanade.

As they crossed the site of the summer fun fair.

Beach Buoy found a pound coin in the grass.

How many years would it have laid there in the grass?
