SEATON SANDS 12 MAY 2018.


Beach Buoy and one Dog arrived at the Beach around 6-30 a.m.
Four Council vehicles were gathered around the Car Park, their ex occupants involved in various tidying tasks.
One of them delivered Wheelie Bins to cope with the overflow of the Big Belly Bins.
Beach Buoy spotted the hopping shoe from last night and placed in the same Litter Bin as it's opposing foot.

They travelled South following a lazy strand line that hadn't ventured far up the Beach.
After a while Beach Buoy saw that the mini Sea from the previous night had drained; they went to investigate.
He found a small pot red bead, most probably from a fishing line in pre-plastic plastic age?
The light out at Sea deserved a walk to the water's edge, so they did....

Clouds of many types could be seen in a 360 degree turn.Out at Sea a Curtain of Light Grey and Lemon, a Pale mist hung over Saltburn to the South.
Behind them a mixture of a Mackerel Sky and long streaky clouds filled in the spaces.
The determined Little Dog wanted to return up towards the Strand line.The Owner obliged and they were rewarded with a five stone game piece, albeit  bereft  of colour and broken as it was.

A grateful Beach Buoy dug his ageing hands deep into his pockets, as was his way.
The Breeze had been off the Sea for the duration of their walk so far today.In an instant the wind changed and now came from the North; suddenly it  was a good few degrees cooler.
The light began to fluctuate as the Sun tried to Burn through varying types of clouds covering giving a filtering effect.
They about turned at The North Gare Pier and headed back, as they did Beach Buoy pulled up his hood.
An unfamiliar birdsong rang out in the Dunes, as if in Competition with the Skylark.
The unknown bird went silent.
Skylark -1 Unknown -0
(Home advantage.)

On their way back they came across a few finds.
A Sea Alley in Italy colours!
A Camper's Brick?

Another driftwood find to log on-line.
