Sea Fest May 18th 2024
We had a great time having lots of conversations at Sea Fest this year! It was massively busy between 10-1 and we didn’t have a chance to breathe, but then had a more relaxed (if a bit dripped on) afternoon in the rain. Blimmin English weather! Leann did a fantastic job with the children, repurposing Read more about Sea Fest May 18th 2024[…]
Another storm, another messed up beach
I have just been down to Jacobs Ladder beach. There was another storm last night and an extremely high tide, so it is always worth a nip down to get whatever the sea spews back at us.

Beach Clean 8th May 2022
A small but select group of wonderful warriors collected 4 bags of rubbish, several disposable barbecues, over 1800 cigarette butts (thanks in a large part to some wonderful visitors to our town who joined in so enthusiastically).
