Today in pictures

Lovely pics Kate...I must admit I thought the seats were stone too...shows how much notice I took when I was snapping away.
Mind you it was coming on to rain and I was using my new camera - I hate getting the camera wet.

I will treat that remark with the contempt it deserves...and it is no good trying to hide behind a wall. I don't get mad...I get even!

My day started early - the first two pics are 4.30am, through the loo window. I waited for a seagull to come into shot, but none obliged so I went back to bed.

The third picture was at 12 noon today.

Edit - I think there might be a seagull in the second picture - either that or some dirt on the lens!
In the third picture, the white clouds at the bottom are where the Lake District mountains should be!

thats dedication, have you tried a piece of bread on the end of a fishing pole, you should get plenty of birds then. Next time you are on the seafront, give it a go

A piece of bread on the garden wall usually suffices, Dave. Just think it was a bit early for them - it certainly was for me!

If you want some padding for you BTM....I can let you have some of mine.
Though I'm not entirely sure how I would get it to you.
Second thoughts...do as Jen says Take a cushion- and an umbrella

I have a donut shape cushion goes everywhere with me at the moment. Fits nicely in a Morrison's shopper - and they have nice pictures on the side too so looks OK when you're carrying it about.

No neighbours on that side Dave, only the car park - and the window is three floors up! It's the little one in the pic on the side of the house next to the soil pipe - the only window in the house that actually faces the sea, though you can see the sea from the back windows at an angle - but only in the winter when there are no leaves on the trees!
