Boring pictures after the lock down …. no. 7.... pebbles, more pebbles and even more pebbles ..... Deal

So, as we edge to a relaxation of lock down, the new series is launched.

Boring pictures after the lock down, invites everyone who is out and about to offer up their own photograph. *

The only qualifications are that it should be by you and be boring.

And I think Colin and Elizabeth hit the brief ............not only have they managed to get three very boring pictures, but they caught the beech at a moment of supreme self distancing, with not a visitor to be seen.

The added bonus was a bit of Colin's thumb and the club house.

To which I have included this exciting piece of information from the Guide to Deal Beach.

 "The long pebble beach at Deal is punctuated by the pier which dates back to the 1950s. 

Whilst it might not be the most attractive pier it is long and features a cafe and fishing decks at the end.

The beach at Deal is an interesting spot for a stroll. Some way to the south of the pier fishing boats are pulled up on the beach and a little further along is Deal Castle.


Backing on to the charming historic town of Deal there are no shortage of amenities".**
