He dropped his ball for Beach Buoy to kick as they passed.
"Morning."
"Morning."

They left the water's edge.
Off to the low level route.
Off to Stubborn Dog Stack.
"Morning Mate."

They went their separate ways.
One slightly more confused than the other.
Random male joggers were running around as though they needed the toilet.
One did.
He stopped to Pee up The Esplanade Wall.
