Jewels in the sands


There are many reasons why people like to go down the the beach,
Some people it's the sounds and the fresh air, some like to rest and relax,
But me! I am to mentally restless, I need to keep distracting my over creative mind with something therapeutic, and to me this means looking for strange looking stones and the occasional colourful glass pebbles that wash ashore.

Tip... Open you mind scope to wide search and focus on the colours you want to see, and look at everything in your scope and you will see lots of shiny colours popping out at you. This makes for less effort physically.

I have walking aides to help me get about but my back does cause me intense cramps and spasms. But the fashion of the hunt distracts me for a moment.

On Sunday just gone I had Sunday dinner and a wonder on the beach and here is the washed up sea glass that I found in a matter of 30 minutes.




Lucky for me! I found my favourite colour.
Royal Blue on Glass with natural light shining through it.
Right next to an ultra rare green glass pebble.

Bellow is a chart that explains why different glass colours are starting to be in decline and rarer as plastic as taken over from glass.





So next time you go down to the beach, keep an eye out for worn down glass! Who knows what you may stumble on, you may be lucky to find gemstones.

Skegness in a new POV




People who visit Skegness often leave thinking why does Skegness have brown sea.
The fact is, Lincolnshire sands are dark and shallow and is churned over itself, leaving us with muddy looking waters.

But if you were to be patient and pay attention to where the sun is setting and the time of day, around 6pm when the sun sets behind you, you can sea the sea in a magical blue light as the sunlight catches the crashing curls of the waves.

I felt extremely dramatic and so chilled out when I finally achieved the image that I set out to get, this was from an imagined expectation that was made to be come reality.

Our Tree's are trying to tell us something









Take a look around you and notice the trees are confused and are not sure if they should let go of this years leaves or stay around to soak up even more uv rays for a bit longer.
As you can clearly see, we should be shuffling through leaves as they start to break down to become part of next years rich soil that surrounds the tree,
This is the time when Florida gets a beating from Hurricane Matthew.
It's seems the lashings from our sun can only be the cause for this irregular weather patterns. Please comment about how the season is different in your area.

How to eat custard slice (you have all been doing it wrong)

Everyone has been eating many variations of Custard slices the wrong way for as long as they have been about.
I have a problem with solving things people normally take for granted, and this last few weeks my brainwaves have been constantly active.

Follow this guide and you will wow every one with a new way to eat and enjoy this sweet treat.

Before you order a slice, make sure you tell them to not put in a box if you are having it sooner than later.   They may give you it in a paper bag then fold it just as the 2nd example image bellow to give your cake more space.

Carefully lift off the icing top using a tilting side way motion leaving the filling exposed like so
Slide the icing side upside down under the bottom pastry giving a practical tastier experience.
