Blowing away the cobwebs

Had a couple of hours at Kimmeridge this afternoon;  the weather was ok, bit of drizzle on the way down, but nothing major. It was a bit mroe blustery down by the sea, but I'm sure that did me good! Knitting was taken, as was a picnic lunch of cheese and chutney rolls (squashed) and a flask of tea which always tastes like no other tea I've ever tasted lol. All part of it, though, and an hour on my own down there did me the world of good, clearing my mind whilst knitting and listening to my beloved sea...............

Ofcourse, you can pick up some wonderful fossils down there if you look even not very hard:
