Somewhere in that first photo is one of the huge Cruise Liners that has been moored off Boscombe for months but shrouded in a torrential downpour that you could probably have strolled away from had it been on land - there was practically no wind (this was Thursday, taken from the Studland ferry).
The plan was to fin from the terminal along the beach for an hour so then back - the new urgency was in getting into the water before I got soaked.
The water was clear and warm as it is everywhere right now, the sandy bottom is perfect for wading and the beach rapidly emptied as I cut along in flat water tho a few people had little pop up tents. I could smell the rain on the sand even across the salt water and when I finally got out it was damp and deeply pockmarked.
45 minutes got me as far as the nudist signs so I flipped and headed back as I wasn't in the mood to go all the way - my bike looked like it had been through a car wash when I got back to it.
£2 well spent (cash ofc) - taking my total contribution to the post-covid economy to £26 in 146 days.
Stuff your free burgers Sunak. Maybe you should suggest cake? That ended well for the French.
