| It was 7-50 am. Beach Buoy had turned up later than usual on purpose. He had two dogs in tow and if they had bumped into the 7 am club it would have all been a bit of a tangle. Stubborn Dog knows that Mari the Poodle comes to say hello , but Beach Buoy's also ran for the day would make a fuss over the large dog coming over. |
 |
| The Sea was Grey and wild. The Sky was just Grey; unable to make up its mind as to its mood. It was just over five minutes to high tide. |
 |
| The rough Sea had left a few finds.... |
 |
| The Bay was wild |
 |
| Whenever Beach Buoy sees waves crashing over South Gare Pier, he pictures the scene about 16 miles to the North. They will be elbow to elbow trying to get 'That' shot. Waves crashing over the Seaham Pier, to be seen in the national press as 'Storm Lashing The East Coast.' when a better headline would maybe be 'Man with large elbows takes well timed photograph.' |

| More Sea Pottery, thanks to @offshoreodd for saying it was a piece from a Doulton Lambeth Wild Hunt piece of pottery c 1880-1910. Beach Buoy took two rocks up into the Dune for the pile.... |
 |
| Three Surfers had entered the water up in the South of the Bay. |
 |
| Try as they might they could not get beyond the breaking waves. They travelled south, if they wanted to or not. |
 |
| Much of the recent driftwood had been piled up near the Dunes. This piece remained...... for now. |
 |
| They all rested on the promenade wall. |
 |
| The three defeated Surfers walked the walk back to the North. |
 |
| As a Lowry Sea Scene unfolded. BEACH BUOY. |
