Sadly my lovely Lady Penelope lost her fight with Bowel Cancer on the 26th of March 2023 I intend to leave the photo of us both taken in much happier times on my title page as a tribute to a beautiful person. She gave me so much love and inspiration and made me so happy. Thank you so much Penny. Sleep tight and fly high.

Storm Surge
On the week preceding December the 5th we had warning of an impending "Storm Surge" all the way down the east coast as far as west Norfolk. What we actually experienced was a once in a lifetime event that few will forget. When walking with my dog on the beach about 3 hours prior to the high tide I noticed that the sea was then at least as high or higher that a normal high tide. Here are some pictures taken during the full high tide and also the Friday morning aftermath. The power of the waves and the sound are things very difficult to describe and pictures don't really give you an idea of how awsome the sight is.
The morning after the night before. Five days on and the Prom is clear and several diggers and sweepers have lamost cleared the beach too. All we need now is to get some steps from the Seaview car park due to these being about 15 feet shorter than they were prior to the high tide. A large section of dunes also went missing and they are back to where they were about 20 years ago with most of the fencing now on the Prom along with an awful lot of scrub that had been building up over the years and acting as a natural tidal barrier.
THE ENVIRONMENT AGENCY TAKING 6-8 WEEKS TO DO WHAT THE SEA DID IN 1-1/2 HOURS!
Ater the storm surge the sand dunes needed building up to replace the ten metres of sand that were washed southwards Several 30 tonne dumper trucks and several excavators were used to move the sand back to the north beach. Unfortunately the dredger boats were unable to get close enough at this end to bring any in. No idea of the cost but I am sure the taxman will collect enough to cover the cost!!
