Hey @trucklife-family hope you're well and have enjoyed a lovely weekend my friend? I lived in the far north of Scotland (Sutherland) for a few years and it's definitely the cold that keeps people away! On a beautiful day, the sand is white and the sea is turquoise blue .. the beaches are literally world class and yet you have then all to yourself.

It gets a little busier down here in the southwest .. but equally, I specialise in finding the places that are far from the madding crowd .. indeed if you're prepared to work for it you can find your beautifully secluded beach :) .. But like you say imagine if the coastline of Britain was in warmer climes .. there would be no coast left!

Thank you my friend, I love your writing also .. been away this weekend, but looking forward to catching up with your posts.
