The cormorant-infested End-of-the-Line this morning at quarter past nine. Pretty, isn't it? |
I know. I know... Wiz zees beach posts I'm reelly
Well, quite frankly, I've got cock all else to post about. I haven't really done anything lately other than work, poke about in the garden (it's not terribly interesting at the moment otherwise there'd be loads of garden photos here), and watch Netflix (Spaced and Star Trek).
I haven't even got any Star Trek art work to show you - except for the Vulcan script/calligraphy I've been scrawling in the sand (yes, there's more of it in this post. Sorry).
Oh, well... Here we go, starting with the view from the top, then down to what has become my usual swim spot, and several photos of sparkling seas (because I couldn't choose just one or two).
The End-of-the-Line, both above and below
Today's Vulcan scrawlings. I wonder what I'm saying?
And, finally, a look back from the main beach before heading up the cliff and home.

It's nice to see some empty beaches! Also nice to know that you are okay - and that you are looking after my Cormorants. Dinah will just call them Shags because she is TOO LAZY to type Cormorants. I am just saying.
ReplyDeleteI am meaning to write a post about my toothache - I still have it, so the topic is still viable, although it is easing off, and may not even be toothache [see how I am trying to make my subject mysterious and interesting], I will leave it there.
Sx
Your cormorants are quite hard work, Ms Scarlet! They leave an awful lot of mess (David Attenborough would call it guano, but it is just mess). Dinah is also QUITE RUDE, too - she has offered Jon a "hangout" for shags. And is talking about "gulp"ing...
DeletePerhaps your mysterious and interesting maybe-not-a-toothache could be adapted into a Netflix series? Something lavish, and rife with cross-purposes, intrigue, and accusing/knowing looks? I expect to see it pop up in my "Recommended For You" list imminently!
What is the collective noun for shags? "An orgy" perhaps? Jx
ReplyDeleteOh gods! I've waited years to say this: one of the collective nouns for cormorants is "a gulp."
DeleteAnd for shags? "a hangout."
You're welcome.
A gulp? I didn't know that. And this is just ONE of the reasons we love blogging.
DeleteIndeed. I hope you are getting your fill of shags and/or gulps.
Delete[shocked at appalling lapse in standards, and innuendo being flung around with wild abandon]
Delete[shocked, I tell you!]
Standards? WHAT standards?
DeleteWell, there were some one once. Perhaps they got lost down the back of the settee...?
DeleteI could never tire of your beautiful beach photos. But what's wrong with posting cock photos? Ohhhhhh that's right...the warty wand thing.
ReplyDeleteDespite what The Very Mistress says, that is NOT my wand.
DeleteWarty or otherwise...
Now I have 'A wizard has a staff with a knob on the end of it' going round in my head.
ReplyDeleteDid you photoshop out the people on the beach?
And I have "The hedgehog can never be buggered at all"...
DeletePhotoshop is too technical for me. Let's just say I "disappeared" them and never mention it again.
Oh. Or it could have been that I was too early for "people"?
I was sat with the maid in Morrison's cafe this afternoon, enjoying a toasted tea-cake, opposite sat a large family, covering two tables, their children were running amok and banging loudly on the nearby tables, they had a very strange way of talking, I thought they might be from Newcastle, then Carmen mouthed the word Gyppos, they were talking about where to move on to next, 'Somewah on cost, quiet like' piped up father gyppo, then one of the children started to bang on our table, they quickly apologised to me, that opened a chink in their clique, big enough for me to tell them about the beautiful secluded beaches on the North Norfolk coast, especially Cromar, Overstrand and beyond, I could tell they were really enthusiastic as they were working out the quickest route! I think one of the children was called Mackenzie.
ReplyDeleteDid someone mention teaCAKES?
DeleteGah! I hope I'm not too late to close our borders? What if they're already here?!?
DeleteAnd Cromer has a Morrisons - it'll be like flies around shit!
Or The Very Mistress around CAKE!
You should watch Elite on Netflix. It's Spanish. It's got Omar. This is all.
ReplyDeleteI've just looked a the trailer. There are one or two VERY pretty boys in it. That can't possibly be the reason you watch it, can it, 'Petra?
DeleteAnd I'm accused of lowering standards? tsk!
ReplyDeleteIt devolve pretty quickly, didn't it...?
