Beachcombing

Took my scavenging a stage further today. Whilst out running in the rain today I happened to spot some washed up timber lying on the sand on Hoylake beach. By the time I got back home, soaking wet I’d already decided to go straight back out to get the timber.

So pushing my (t)rusty wheelbarrow whilst wearing my trainers, lycra shorts and running jacket - all soaking wet - I must have a looked a right sight walking back down to the beach. Worth it anyway ‘cos I rescued an old scaffolding plank in okay condition (for raised bed use) and another couple of lengths of timber that’ll be useful maybe to fix the fence at the back of the plot.

Sarah has spotted a skip down the road that might have some good timber in it so I’ll check that out next.

Raining on and off all day today with the same forecast for tomorrow.
