You might think that doing Coast Watch in the winter might be a bit grim, and that it would be more fun to be tucked up at home by the fire, with a good book and a pint of Wherry.
However, there are compensations and in winter, far more than in summer, we never know what we are going to find on the beach, especially after a spell of stormy weather.
How about this for one of our finds on the local beach? We took lots of pictures of us on this yellow flying saucer so we could show them to the rest of the guys and consult them about what it was. It certainly didn't belong on that stretch of beach and had clearly escaped and travelled some distance, probably from a port such as Great Yarmouth.
Of course, the great thing about winter Coast watch is that when we finally get home and come in from the cold, that fire and pint of Wherry are appreciated so much more than usual.
Lots of love, all at the Norfolk Branch xxx
