BBC Challenge - Glass

OK, this was a set up but there was a price to pay. In the first instance every time I knelt down to take the photo Hamish and Hannah would stand in front of me. When eventually I managed to get them out of shot and was lying almost flat on the wet sand, a wave would come in and either wash the bottle away or submerge me. I accidentally got sand on the camera and Hamish shock himself all over it on one occasion (shock, horror - it is soon to be thoroughly and gently cleaned) and the final straw were the mossies who were the size of vultures. I have come home wet, covered in sand and itching. Well I guess I just had to do one on a Newcastle beach didn't I.
