Today we decided to embrace the damp and dismal weather that is yet another summer in the UK and set off for our nearest seaside town:
.

Walking along the prom, I spotted this sign :
.
.
I'm sorry, what?
They obviously have their own technology in Somerset.
(A technology that needs its own zone no less.)
.
And then we visited the sand festival on the beach.
.
.
Just what is this man doing?!
Has he sat on something? Is he straining? Has he got piles?
.
Apart from that one oddity, there were some fantastic sand sculptures.
.
.
.
.
. We also went on the "Wheel", which I thought was quite brave of me, but it wasn't too terrifying.
.
.
.
.And just in case any of you have ever wondered how I maintain my *ahem* figure ...
.
.
... I always insist on ice-creams that are the same size as me!

Love your pictures! Those scupltures are amazing!
I went there years ago, and a red flag was up and children were (happily) playing in cesspits :(

Great photos, it almost looks lovely lol!
All joking aside, a few years ago, Weston beach was voted one of Britains best beaches. I love it there.

Even damp and dreary, I long to be there! I love the UK and it has been too many years since my last visit.
I hope you finished every last scrap of that ice cream.

I'm glad you enjoyed a day out in my little town:) Next time your there you should let people know. I would have brought you a cake!
Fantastic post! Made me roar with laughter at the sand man!:O). Wish I had known it was on... I would have gone...... My spade needs a bit more action, ha! ha! x
The first sand man makes me a bit uncomfortable (watching somebody be constipated? ew), but the rest are amazing... wow! And that cloud shot is incredible... though I wish they'd bugger off and let the sun back!

LOVE the sand sculptures! We have a sand arts festival here every year, put on by an art college that I work for...I love it!!
I love sand sculptures and these are brilliant! Love the last photo the best though!!!LOL
*Gasp* Your nearest beach is Weston?!
I would like to say I have fond memories of WSM but being a teenager in a country village with WSM as your nearest "night out" does cause some pretty jaded memories!
Looks like you had a nice day of it though, and wish I'd been around to see those sculptures!
