Cosmic etc.



The beach seems to change between these two conditions quite quickly.It is very popular here at the moment but I am a bit of a sunshine lightweight so I tend to go to the beach when it is a bit more sensible.Sunny weather is always welcome in this country as far as i'm concerned.It is grey here for about six months of the year then when the sun does finally come out people start saying that it's too hot.Theres no pleasing english people who only seem to be truly happy when complaining.

More Rock

Here is a before and after photo of a most impressive rockfall that happened near the beginning of the year.There goes my beach.

Rocks and Cliffs




Lovely red rocks here. Over the past year and a half I have seen three rockfalls. Not the place to be when this comes down. A sound like a lightening strike then huge rocks bouncing across the beach so fast that there is no time to run out of the way. A rockfall just after Christmas missed me by a few feet; If I had been closer to the cliff I would have been very dead. Always worth bearing in mind when walking on the beach here is that these cliffs don't just fall down at night when there is nobody around.
