Sunday
Usually make my own yoghurt, but thought I would treat myself and try these. Must admit they are very very nice and I would recommend them.
Monday
A stroll along a very very windy beach, and I just loved the way this froth was blowing along the tide line. The sky may be blue but it was COOOOOOOLD.
Tuesday
Had some baking to do, one of the most important bakes of the year. You can read about how I stuck the cake back together here.
Wednesday
Was Bob's 7th birthday, all to grown up all to quick. I asked him what he wanted for his birthday. He said he wanted seeds to grow vegetables for his garden, so I bought him seeds, compost and seed trays and a bug house to hang in his garden to encourage bugs so we can look at them with the magnifying glass. Here he is cutting up his cake.
Thursday
We had an early morning appointment to keep this week and then a friend to pick up from the train station, but while waiting we went for another walk along a cold beach. as we were heading back to the car to pick the friend up we saw the policeman meeting up with a member of the public and then heading off down the beach at a high rate of knots. I went back up to the top of the dunes to see if we could see anything, but no we couldn't. As we headed back to the car we saw another police van with two more police going to join the first one. Not seen anything in the news.
If you blow the picture up and zoom in on the figure dressed in black it is the policeman.
Friday
Back down at our friends cottage again tonight, and I love the trail this plane left as it flew overhead, often wonder where people are going and why.
Saturday.
Another breezy but blue sky and sunny day. Here is Mr/Mrs Seagull sitting enjoying the heat from the neighbours heating. These things are a bl**dy nuisance if you go out in the street when their young are around they dive bomb you and attack. If people stopped feeding them they may not be so keen to hang around, but I suppose one of the drawbacks of living so close to the beach.

ReplyDeleteWow, the sea photo is brilliant. I think I'd have to get that framed and up on display!
ReplyDeleteOh Elaine that surf photo is just beautiful! I love the way that you've got right in there for it! I often try and take one but never manage to capture the movement properly, but yours is brilliant; I must make a note to try it.

ReplyDeleteLoving the windy beach. A 7th birthday .... So grown up & lovely cake x

ReplyDeleteYour beach picture is stunning its so hard to get water just at that perfect time so it looks good on a photo.
ReplyDeleteReally love the beach picture. Happy birthday to Bob and what a great gift to ask for!
ReplyDeleteyou are a good Gran making Bob's birthday cake and I love what you bought him for his birthday - that will occupy him and get him busy outdoors.
ReplyDeletei really like Monday's photo - i can imagine how cold it was because although sunny here there was a cold wind earlier in the week x

Those beautiful blue skies. We seem to be a bit lacking in those at the moment. The surf and the seagull are my favourite shots.
ReplyDeleteHow lucky you are living so close to a beach except for the bliddy seagulls.. they are a nuisance.
ReplyDeleteWe only get them near our house when there's rain coming up the Bristol Channel and they fly inland.
I agree seagulls are annoying, but your pic makes that one look very cute! Love the cake x
ReplyDeleteYour photo of the waves is stunning.Fantastic colours.
ReplyDeleteReally like your present for your grandson, and I'm intrigued about the policeman incident! Lovely photos
