Pic's deleted due to site not being secure/leaving link on forum.John (minstrel) his mate Judi,and me went for a overnighter to a beach id found in January (a few other guy's from here could'nt attend) Id been to a farm and gained permission to park on the farm land as there is no otherway to get down to the beach, we headed down early Sat morning, once there we set up camp,
there are two of these old ruins which we found out later from the farmer where from the old days of Salmon fishing
this is ruin two,
John practised the bow drill for a time,and then went foraging,his lunch was winkle,limpet,and noodles, i stuck to M&S chicken and a brew!
Due to a tide times we could'nt do the exploring we'd planned till later, so we went back to the car and brought down some seasoned wood john had brought with him(it had rained for day's earlier so the drift wood was truely damp. i passed a bit of time walking round what i could then grabed 30 mins rest in my tent,
once the tide had gone back out,we headed south east down to part's of the beach that were a scramble,a squeeze,and a climb to get to,
above John just having climbed up,
Above John and Judi squeezed through this gap,me being bigger,and a bit claustrophobic,decided to go up and over!
as far as we got this day,there was loads more beaches to explore,but it was getting late,and a drinky,and fire beckoned,so we set off back, i went and had a lok in this cave on the way back, the bottles and rubbish are from the sea,and tides.
the weather stayed great until about 10.30pm then the rain came down, i managed to get a couple of hours round the fire,
then headed for bed.
the next day started out nice,i got up about 8 ish and took this of the sea
and this of looking back at camp from the south east,
After breaky we set off on the walk back to the the car and after a chat to the farmer John dropped me off and headed home,cheer's John/Judi had a great time looking forward to the next...
