The sea and the sun
Saturday 27th of January 2018
My parents are staying at our house while the purchase of their new house grinds along. I don’t get on well with them and have been feeling stressed lately, so Zoe and I took Em out for breakfast at the Lighthouse Café in Lowestoft, then for a walk along the seafront.

I’d tried it out a few times this past week but nothing really seemed to work that well with it. Until tonight. I was idly fiddling about w…

Fog in the Morning
Monday 29th of September 2014
It’s not often we get fog like this in the morning, so I felt compelled to take advantage of it with a nice walk to the beach before work. lost cat poster bike warning sign bollard on cycle path water tower office Office building in front of our local water tower trees in two layers of fog dewy spider webs beach grass It’s quite an odd experience walking on a foggy beach. beach plant dog walker on…
