Since summer has come, at last, I thought I would indulge my new found enthusiasm for sea-bathing by walking out to the beach in the midday sun. The only thing I had forgotten is that the reason the beach is so wide and the distance of the tide from high to low so long is that it is shallow far out to sea, so that far from being able to plunge in, I was only able to paddle up to my knees and then flob about on some rocks, so that my ardour has somewhat cooled:-

the positive side of shallow water….. no rip tides, less a chance of drowning. You need to wait for high tide!
Yes, good advice. Charles
Lidos are best.
Is there nothing you can’t do ? Adding sea-bathing tops it all, though it may not feature in the Book of the Blog ?
Dear Mark, It doesn’t take much to strip off and jump in the sea. Charles
Agreed. But it’s the diversity that’s impressive – flaneur, photographer, architectural historian, gourmet and on !
