A milestone. . .

 . . .  apparently.
My car had to go to the garage today. Terri very kindly collected me and we went to play after a welcome coffee in Westward Ho! The tide was retreating and on Northam Burrows we saw lots of seabirds enjoying a feed. 
I persuaded these sandpipers (I think) to arrange themselves into a 3000 for today's blip - then they flew off! (Extra).
It will be beans for the next month after the retrieval of the car!
