SEATON SANDS 06 AUG 2018.

Beach Buoy has some time off...
He set off for the Beach about the same time he would have done  for work. It's the same route too.
This morning his carriage broke off the work train of cars and derailed onto the Beach at 6-55am.
The Car behind derailed too and ended up parked next to Beach Buoy in the, until then, Empty Car Park.
The Lady Driver stepped out her Car with her Dog and off she went along to the Water's Edge and heading South.
Before long she was in the distance... "Must Call Her Dot." Beach Buoy thought to himself, as that was all she was now.


On the Beach a Council Tractor scraped the Surface of the Dog Ban Area of the Beach to make it spick and span  by clearing it of rocks and stones and maybe the odd dropped Pound coin or set of Car Keys.

The Morning was Silvery and Overcast but still very warm.
The tide was well out. The Sea was still calm and lapping like a   Lakeside rather than a Sea.

Beach Buoy liked the designs; both Man and Bird made...

As Beach Buoy headed South with Stubborn Dog he glanced back to see a large playful Dog run from the Dunes down to the Water and in he dived. The Big Black Dog turned 180 degrees and stood  in the Sea like a Broken Groyne; admittedly a Broken Groyne with a Waggy Tail, trying to tempt it's owner come join him.
He wouldn't, and the Groyne grew legs and headed back to the Dunes.
Beach Buoy headed South up to North Gare Pier.
On the way there he noticed Massive footprints, made by bare feet; feet that had headed North.
"Bigfoot!" Beach Buoy thought to himself.
He had seen the footprints now but not the creature, not Yeti anyway.

At the North Gare Pier Beach Buoy was happy to see the Sand Martins still swooping around.

On the way back the Sun showed up late for work.
Apparently he had been to a Party in Australia all night and the flight back was delayed.


The Council Tractor passed Beach Buoy as it headed along the Beach to North Gare Corner to dump the Rocks, Stones, Pound Coins and Car Keys.
Beach Buoy arrived back at the Car park and placed his 14 Beach  Clean items in the Council  Rubbish Bin.
He felt a sense of satisfaction moments later when a Council Truck turned up to empty the Bin's Contents.

BEACH BUOY.
