BEACH LIFE - EARLY MORNING

Fearing that today might turn out like yesterday with no chance for an outdoor blip, I headed for the beach just after sunrise and had it to myself except for the birds. I only stayed for about 10 minutes then needed to get home via a shop and cash machine.

So far the day has been a big improvement on yesterday with the techie problem which took up all yesterday afternoon and evening solved and a few other small but unpleasant chores out of the way, but we await the arrival of the boiler engineer ("sometime between 11 and 3") before I can say the day is a success.
