We decided to go went to Brixham yesterday as there is lots to do there. First we did a bit of shopping to get Monkey small present.
After a lot of looking we eventually agreed on a pirate bracelet for him.
We thought it would be something that he could wear on Talk Like A Pirate Day later on in the year.
The idea came to us after we had admired a pirate ship that someone had parked in the harbour.
All the sea air made us hungry and we both fancied a bite to eat.
Nigel chose the beans and cheese on toast, but I decided to embrace Devon traditions and plumped for a Cornish pasty!
After our light repast Nigel was desperate to be near the sea again and hopefully to see someone fishing …. how fortuitous then that there was such a person on the breakwater doing exactly that ….
Nigel’s eyes nearly popped out of his head when he saw that the gentleman had caught several small fish called wrasse.
They were very beautiful and the gentleman was very kind to them, making sure that they were returned to the sea safe and sound.
When he put them back into the sea Nigel tried to look for them, but they swam away very quickly.
What a brilliant day!
Which we rounded off with a game of hide and seek in the rocks.
Fantastic!
