Pic of the week 9/7/17
And so the holidays have arrived – for me at least!
The first week, and the sun shone, let’s hope that that is an omen for the rest of the hols.
On Wednesday Becky & I had a day at the beach sans children, who are still at school (and with Sophie driving, no need for us to worry about the school run.)
So we hopped in the Mini, first stop Bridport. A pleasant enough market town where we enjoyed a street side coffee in the sun, but nothing to rave about. A rather “grey” population …
From there it was but a brief drive to Burton Bradstock. What a fantastic beach, lapped by the clearest of clear blue sea, it was idyllic to just sit and stare, to chill and bake simultaneously. Of course, I could not resit the lure of the water for long and I was soon in for the first of my two swims. ‘Twas cold mind, testicle shrinking-ly cold. Nevertheless, on each occasion I spent circa 20 mins in the water, gently ploughing to and fro along the beach, breaststroke only – to cold to keep immersing the face whilst doing crawl.
A lovely day.
Happy hols!
