Default To The Beach!

Done Teignmouth (Tinmuth to the locals) now to Exmouth and see if the sea has warmed up any. Hope you are all enjoying it!

Once you go East past Budleigh Salterton, you lose the sandy beaches untill you get to Weymouth... And once you round Exeter going West, you begin to get East facing beaches with the prevailing off shore winds. Dangerous for grockles innit.. ..

Charmouth's not too bad, and Lyme Regis have got the sand imported from France down one end of the front. Thats nice for kids to play on..

Hyperthermia is over-heating.

Hypothermia is freezing your bits off

People don't go into the sea these days, they put kinky rubber suits on, accost everyone who looks awake with the question "got any gear mate" (nod nod wink wink) and pose about on round nosed builders planks innit...
