Had to be done!

We both slept like logs last night and indulged in a very long and leisurely breakfast. Joe had stuff to do so we went off on a hike - a walk from Clifton to Pohara and back. The day was utterly gorgeous, v cold and clear to start with and then just beautiful. The beach here is pristine and goes on forever, proper sand, driftwood and exotic shells, and no plastic. I paddled. Hmmm. This felt distinctly do-able! It was primo if somewhat frish!! No one about so I think it was just the endangered banded dotterel innocently nesting in the dunes that might have had an eye full.(Photo courtesy of Himself).
Later I went down to the new garden and pottered. There is a plant that would cost a fortune in an Irish garden centre that is swamping everything and needs pulling out. I also discovered a grape vine!
I've just made a rather good curry enjoyed with chapatis and the last of the trifle. I think it's nearly bedtime.
