Ha ha thanks Mick :thumbs: I would never have believed it :thumbs:

I asked the wife did she want to Southport today but she said no as our favourite cake shop would be closed, can you guess which one it is?
 
Ah, right. Don't go down there much, it's right in the heart of tripper land. Mind you - I don't go into Southport much. Got a wife to do the shopping thingy stuff!
 
I understood the tide comes in. I've never ever seen it though!
 
That's a 10 metre tide (don't ask, because I don't know). Sometimes in Winter we get 12 metre tides, and with an onshore wind there are good photo opportunities when the spray comes right over the sea wall.
 
hehe Yeah I walked out to it when I was a kid.

Never again :p
