| I was awake at stupid o'clock and got to the Beach around 10 past Silly o'clock. Waiting for the light to come |
 |
| Light came eventually and to the North showed the clouds over Hartlepool's Headland. |
 |
| To the South the Sky was brighter |
 |
| I headed off to Middleton Beach; The Beach of my childhood days. It was a couple of hours to high tide . |
 |
| Middleton, when we were kids you had to make the decision as the tide came in like this... could you still make it to the Cabin side of the village? |
 |
| Sea coal. |
 |
| Dad and Me at his Cabin; the first one as you came off the Pier. He made the seat on the side for people to sit and enjoy the sea view. |
 |
| This part of Middleton Beach and the Banjo Jetty no longer exist thanks to Dock modifications. It shows our Dog, my Dad and me pondering life. |
 |
