Beachcombing

 Copy (2) of Picture 106
There is a very small beach at Solent Breezes, not suitable for buckets and spades or sandcastles, but ideal for looking for Holey Stones.

Darrell started this whole collecting Holey Stones business and it’s become a compulsive activity whenever any of us are by the sea.  We are all quite expert at it now and never fail to find a couple, but Auntie Jan went with Granny to Llandudno a few weeks ago and they searched for hours and didn’t find one, they were most disappointed!

Anyway I found quite a few, plus some nice shells and can’t wait to show Darrell my treasures when I get home.  I also found some cuttlefish but I had to leave it behind because after about five minutes it began to stink the caravan out.

Isn’t the seaside brilliant?

The weather has been brilliant and while I was beachcombing I’m sure my face caught the sun a bit!

Next time bring your electric drill and a metal file. You'll have loads of holey stones then.
