It's a lovely day today, but the northerly wind is cold. There is an occasional hail shower from a dark cloud. The sea is cold as well, but there are already beach guards by the water (it's still Easter holidays). The tide is very low today, so the beach is very wide. There are people and dogs all around - all locals. Holiday makers don't have permission to come until tomorrow; self-catering and campervans only. Toilets are not opened yet. High water six hours ago deposited a tideline of sand and seaweed on the footpath. The black and white flag (of St Piran) is flying on (Engarder) Chapel Rock.

I'm a proper lazybones today. I found an old blog (August 2018) and decided to recycle it. I like reusing lots of things! I was brought up after the war, in a spirit of make do and mend. We didn't squander a single thing. I was satisfied with my verses in the first place, so why shouldn't I recycle them?
