Beach Buoy and Another Dog headed to the beach.
There was a wonderful mist out in the bay.
It was very atmospheric.
Lovely colour palette too.



Team One Black Ear were up ahead to the south.
Beach Buoy collected five suitable stones.


It was a dramatic-looking morning.


To the north, sea swimmers screamed.



The light to the north was lovely.



The beach almost looked to be busy!


The lady who walks the full length of the beach was heading back north.

As they had passed they stopped to chat.

They agreed that it was a gorgeous morning and that the light was beautiful.

They continued to the south.

They stopped to chat to Team One Black Ear.

Team One Black Ear continued northwards, Beachcombing as they went.

In the distance, the man who once had four dogs headed south with three.

Up ahead, the North Gare Pier Repair Squad worked above the mist.

The mist/fog seemed to a series of strips?

They walked the low level route.



On the beach below, the man who once had four dogs carried on south with three.

Distant waves had been shared as they passed the stack.


"Morning Mate." 

Beach Buoy added the five suitable stones.

Beach Buoy went to the beach alone.

He arrived at 7-14 a.m.

As he went down the beach access ramp, the Beachcombing Border Collie Couple left the beach.

He collected five suitable stones before heading south.

The tide was way out.

The clouds were lovely.

There was a chill in the light breeze from the north east.

Beach Buoy scattered some seeds.

He headed south.

The beach was his 

He could sing any song he wanted, as loud as he wanted and nobody would know.

North Pier repair squad.

They heard no song.

Beach Buoy spotted the lady who walks the full length of the beach to the south 

Quick!

Finish the last verse.

In silence they shared distant and passing waves.

Once again, the sand had been washed away leaving a miniature cliff appearance.

The Sea Serpent.

Most probably popped up to see what all of the singing was about?

A small and vulnerable-looking boat headed out between the Gares.

It turned and headed for the Sea Serpent.

The small boat dropped anchor.

It drifted north slightly.

Gone fishing.

Beach Buoy walked the low level route.

A lady took off her coat as she headed south.

He added two sturdy stones to the sea defence.

He climbed the small slope.

"Morning Mate." 

It was 7-40

Beach Buoy added the five suitable stones.

He patted 

THE 

stone.

He scattered some seeds.

He topped up the wildlife water bowl.

He had a stand and a think.


Another wonderful Brakesy had been kindly left up at Stubborn Dog Stack.

One of the three gate keepers, waiting as usual for Beach Buoy to leave.


"See you mate." 

He left.

Once Beach Buoy was on the low level route, the three Crows headed up to Stubborn Dog Stack.

Others headed south.

The man who once had four dogs headed south with three.

They chatted as they passed.

The three dogs looked good today.

Sea Swimmers to the north.

The wreck this morning.

A ship headed into the river.

Beach Buoy went to the Esplanade.

One third of Team Mick Aston Jumper were heading back to their car.

Beach Buoy went over to say hello and give the little black dog a well-recieved ear rub.
