Busy on the Beach
« on: April 22, 2013, 07:04:11 PM »
 Have you noticed the JCB has been on the beach the past two days? Yesterday they were clearing the seaweed and today they seem to be

re-directing the river back to it's original course,over the past few weeks the river seems to have edged ever closer to "the Waves" and they

won't want that on their doorstep.

Hopefully the beach will be seaweed free for the early season visitors.

This photo was taken at the very end of May last year, the seaweed pile was all but gone on June 3rd. Hopefully this year it will be gone by the time the first flights arrive for the new season.

They collect the seaweed quite often throughout the season.

Blimey, thats a lot better than last year when it was early June before they cleared the beach properly.

Maybe they have seen the weather forecast for the weekend 28c and sunny, they might get a few day trippers!

 They probably want it cleared before they start their Easter celebrations.

Usual old jokes.

I don't think they clear the seaweed to save Gavlah the embarrassment of girlie screams as he minces his way into the water.

It's a very good fertiliser, and comes in on the tide - a gift from Poseidon.

 They were working late last night the lorry had his headlights on going to and fro with loads of seaweed and Stavroula was there watching the

proceedings.Have you noticed she seems to sleep all day and come to life at night a bit like the Kavos lot.
