Red alert

Yesterday, the hottest of the week was rather warm. Across the estuary in our boat, this time doing a small diversion, a 'little pootle' up one of the creeks to examine the craft on moorings.

I'd taken the precaution of suntan cream on arms, legs and face and on reaching our lovely little beach, we found a secluded, sheltered spot among the rocks. Suddenly, it felt very warm indeed. For the first time this year, off with my shirt to get the rays for a short time. Sleep savagely betrayed me. I joined that subspecies of humans, the redbacks. Owwwww!
