SEATON SANDS HARTLEPOOL. 30, AUG. 2025.

 Saturday.

Beach Buoy and Another Dog arrived at the beach at 6-31 a.m.


The Sun was up.
The air was almost still.

A young man rested against the Esplanade Wall as he faffed on with his mobile phone.


They headed for the sea.

The 7 a.m. club gentleman was limping his way southwards.
A one dog day.

The limp was due to a twist in the sand.

Walks gradually becoming longer as recovery goes on.
They chatted.



Beach Buoy and Another Dog continued to the south.

The Beachcombing Border Collie Couple were heading back north.

Three sea swimmers headed for the water.

Beach Buoy collected five suitable stones


The very very wet retriever was heading north.
Beach Buoy chatted to the owner.
He had just finished a night shift.
Beach Buoy threw the ball for the dripping dog as they went their own ways.

Team One Black Ear were up ahead.
Apparently people had been asking, 
"Where's Paul. Is he O.K.?"

They chatted as Beach Buoy made a fuss of Hugo, the dog with one black ear.

Beach Buoy and Another Dog headed to Stubborn Dog Stack.


7-21.
"Morning Mate."
Beach Buoy added the five suitable stones.
He added more from another beach too.
He patted
THE
stone.


Ruby was actually glad to be out on the beach.

A Seal popped up.

Team Muzzled Dog arrived up at Stubborn Dog Stack.
They chatted and reported that they had seen the dolphins for the first time yesterday.
The Dolphins had been in the bay for around twenty minutes.

They headed  off into the dunes.


The Seal was still there.
Every now and then it would look around.
Beach Buoy decided that it was having a bob and think.


Beach Buoy had a sit and think.

Two young ladies walked and talked their way south, then back north.


"See you mate."
They returned to the beach below.

A man stood ankle deep in sea, shoes in hand.
He watched as his dog dug a dog dug hole.


A jogger and his dog ran the water's edge.

Four more sea swimmers headed to the sea.

Beach Buoy walked and talked with the man with a black dog  for a short while.

As he drove off, he passed Mr.Gunn/Lunn and Excellent Dog Alfie.
They shared passing ways.

BEACH BUOY.
