Nothing
Total write off. I don’t do a thing today, and you know what? I’m not sorry in the slightest. I’m really enjoying putting the travel on hold for a while and getting back to the human race. It’s nice to just wander in the sunshine doing very little at all. Actually I probably did do …

Yo! Ho! Ho! And a bottle of rum!
I’ve always been fascinated by the seaside in winter. I relish in the loneliness of it, the chilly damp, the memory of a happy summer. I love seeing the boarded up stalls and empty band stands. The ballrooms echoing mirth and cheer. The wet sands devoid of donkeys. Cold grey skies and wind whipped cliff tops, …
