Seems ages ago now since I took that, at one point you couldnt even watch it the glare off the sea was so brilliant. Tom

Thank you very much Sam, its been a great experience and just grateful that with all thats going on we managed to get away, strange though seeing people on the beaches wearing masks, it doesn't seem real. Hope you're well. Over Fork Over. Tom
