Hi all, don't know about you but the one place I love to be near is the sea, the one place I can sit for hours just watching it, the one place I feel at piece with myself and contemplate life itself.
I am no Photographer but here are a few I have taken quiet recently. Feel free to put your sea pictures on here.
I thank you ;-)
You can almost smell it.
Feed The Birds....not the cats!!!!
I know....my spelling's crap !!
Spot on andrewa.
The Southwold lighthouse. Southwold is such a lovely oldie worldie type seaside town and is well worth a visit. We have had some lovely holidays there over the years, and is only 15 minutes from Minsmere ;-)
Used to live just a few miles from Southwold Robbo and have spent many hours there. Super place

I'm glad you managed to get there, Jenni, and happy I may have helped in some small way!! Ain't nostalgia great!!!
I like the look of Southwold - in fact we are staying not far from there at the end of April next year. Nearer the time I shall be after some tips and advice!
Cheers, Linda.

Birding is for everyone no matter how good or bad we are at it,enjoy it while you can
Hi Seaman -I've been offline for nearly 48 hours as my emails were hacked and a trojan given me as a goodwill gesture!!!!! That's a pity about the hotel as it's very handy for Mershead and lots of other places for geese etc. The birds in the pics are Curlew and Redshank. The air was just filled with their calls as well as Oystercatchers. I just love those sounds!
God gave us two ears and one mouth for a very good reason!
Hi Linda, if you get a chance a visit to Southwold is a must, here's a few tasters
The sea front taken from the pier, the town still has a victorian feel to it and as yet has not been commercialised (thankfully)
The Good old English beach hut
The beach from the harbour end ( honest the sun does shine usually)
The beach is immaculate and very clean.
It's also a great place for beach fishing and watching for sea birds.
Oh Robbo, love the beach huts. Are they privately owned or leased?

Great shots Robbo adn brings back great memories. Have you been up the lighthouse? I have a couple of shots from the top somewhere I'll try to dig them out and post.
Caroline the huts are privately owned and change hands at +/- 40,000 pounds a go!!!!
Hi Andrew.
We went up a couple of years ago ...after having a couple of pints of Adnams Broadside in the Lord Nelson pub, Can't really remember much about it !!!!! lol
Hi Caroline.
As Andrew said the beach huts are worth a fortune and it's very rare that they are up for sale. They are passed down through the familys usually.
Here's one from the Essex seaside resort Walton-on-the-Naze, taken yesterday. Plenty of Seaweed on the steps, Seaweed soup anyone ??
