Carlisle Beach in the Rain!

Ok - not all day, but I was to be found huddled under a beach umbrella fending off a shower earlier today. Odd because it was a lovely sunny start to the day and the sea was glorious. I walked into a huge 'cloud' of tiny silver fish. They manage to stay in the same place even though the waves above them are moving - and they glint in the sun.
There was a cruise ship in today - so a busy beach and all the guys selling trips were trying to catch every possible customer. It made for an interesting day watching guys getting cross with each other!
Had a rum punch and a vegetable roti at lunch - it makes for a cheap, scrumptious and relaxing lunch time - and all from the comfort of a sunbed with a fantastic view. Bliss.
I had hoped to treat myself to a Haagan Dazs cup of ice cream on the way home but there is a homemade sign in the window saying they are closed - I don't know if that means forever or not. Hmmm - not good news!
Well - the rain has returned with a vengeance so I need to think carefully about where I am going for dinner. Last night I tried out a drink at Ocean 7 - nice place - and then was taken for dinner by a friend at Naru. It is a Japanese restaurant in the Shak Shak complex in Hastings. Really enjoyed the meal, it was a real treat.
So - that's going to take some topping tonight.
One thing I'm sure of, I am not going to waste my time drying my hair straight tonight! If you ever saw that episode of 'Friends' where Monica goes to Barbados and the humidity made her hair go wild...you'll understand!
