The sand didn't crunch and it wasn't slippy. It was as hard as walking along the pavement and my feet went tap, tap on it, just as if I were walking on stone. It was a bit eery.

It was cerainly a cold day - though very bright and sunny too.

The new blogger editor is annoying. I like the way we can post bigger pictures but, when clicked, they don't come up as crisply as they did when smaller - otherwise you would see the texture was even better than it looks here.

I'd never seen frozen sand before either. It must have been unusually cold because this is sand by the sea and, therefore, salty.

I hadn't thought of that. At the same time . . . the arctic is probably colder than Weymouth. (So far!)
