Five go down to the beach

Today was supposed to be overcast and cloudy! The Northern Bird and I decided that the forecast was going to be wrong again, just like it was yesterday.
We were right! It even started off lovely. We made up a picnic lunch grabbed swimming things, towels and buckets and spades then set off to our closest beach.
Having been here quite a few times I know that there is a streach of beach which never seems to get crowded. We decided to walk the short distance to get to this part of the beach. Once there we sorted everything out and the girls immediately ran off to play in the sea, which is pretty much where they remained for the whole day only coming out for their lunch then returning to it straight afterwards.
Northern Bird and I sat on the sand in the sun and had a good natter.
