The things you spot at the seaside

Was it a real parrot or a pretend one?

I would have taken the photo,  I believe in social photography of current life in Britain. I have even photographed the homeless and a drunk woman stumbling around in the city centre in a state of semi undress.  I knew she was drunk because she had a bottle of apple cider with her.

Lamb Diaper!

Love it! Sounds like something in Japan!

I saw an old lady in a wheelchair in Hastings with a parrot on her shoulder. It would be rude to take pics.

To centre and stabilise without weighing down

It was about 2006 when I experienced that sight, so if any of you can remember that far back, you will recall that tech was very basic then and smart phones were things of the futire. Even if I had of taken a photo, I lost that phone years ago and if by some miracle I'd managed to upload it to my computer it would have been to no avail as that computer got blasted when a lightening bolt hit the electricity pole outside our house in about 2011, I lost eveything then.

TheCatWoman confounds all 

I know I have already beaten myself up….the idiot that I am…..

That is true!

TheCatWoman has a well documented aversion to camera phones, much as I'd have loved to see a picture

Everyone needs an anchor.  The trick is to select the right one!  

Sorry what was I thinking  

An anchor? Love it! Well, your photos are always full of surprises! 

I don't have a photo, phones that could take photos were only just a thing when this happened, don't you know by now I never have a photo! lol

Where is the photo?

Hand rearing abandoned lambs is quite common, you just don't expect to find them on the seafront having a day out! You might find a cold and abandoned lamb in the warming drawer of an old range cooker though.

There are convoluted possibilities here.  For instance, perhaps she was the mother of a sheep farmer and the lamb had been abandoned - maybe she thought she'd help by hand-rearing it?   Other than that, it didn't happen !  

I saw an old woman, wearing a fur coat, sitting in a wheel chair, bottle feeding a lamb wearing a nappy on Aberystwyth sea front! I was so glad I was not alone, so were the other two people I was with, if we'd have been alone I think we'd have questioned our sanity
