I used to play with Neptune's Necklace (or Beads) as a kid, squeezing the little segments of fresh-out-of-the-sea weed, until they squirted salty water in my brother's face. I love how it looks when it dries, and make pictures on the white sand with shrivelled, black pieces of it.

I used to spend a lot of time here, years ago when a friend had their yacht moored off this beach. Fond memories of paddling a ridiculously overloaded dinghy to and from the yacht, came back to me as I wandered along the beach. It is simply serene, and on this sun-bathed evening, it was nearly all mine, mine, mine.

Rainy day at the local mall, with things to buy, money to spend. Inadequate parking as ever on days like this, in the lead-up to the Jesus season. Every man and his flea-bitten mongrel, shuffling around in the fluorescence. Saggy-titted women (oh get a bra for fuck's sake!) pushing their snot-faced (NB the snot was not limited to the nose) kids around and around and around. Husbands held captive, glazed eyes searching for something, anything of interest, and wanting to be at home watching the Grand Prix, or getting sucked-off by that attractive red-headed chick in Jeans West... or anything, anywhere but there in the Legionella gloom.
