Unfortunate......

......business names, and the 'footfall' obviously isn't great either (possibly because it's just off a roundabout in a residential area on the Cullercoats/Whitley Bay borderline.....which couldn't ever be descibed as a global financial hotspot)

(TOP TIP: you could probably find something similar near where you live or work if you're blip-blank.....it would be sort of comforting that I'm not alone......)

Unfortunate me too, the sun had skulked behind a cloud and there was no one on the beach when I got there, not even a seagull....
