Swimmers

Oscar and I joined the swimmers once more! As soon as we reached the beach Oscar started whining! He really can't understand why the humans enter the wet stuff! He was ok as we walked along the shoreline but the other dogs on the beach and children meant he never really settled! I'm hoping the more we go he will get used to it!!There were lots of people swimming, as well as people just visiting. It's a small bay where you can watch the various boats in the Plymouth Sound, as well as doing a little rock pooling, having a pasty, ice-cream or hot beverage! 
There was a new person in the group - and it turns out she is a famous children's author! She wrote the Septimus Heap series! She moved to the village 2 years ago but due to Covid she has not been able to fully immerse herself in the village until now! She recognised me and Oscar from our walks along the road which is parrallel to the river and which is where her house is! Apparently we have exchanged pleasantries - but so many people stop me to admire Oscar I didn't remember her! Who knew our little village has become a hot spot for well known people!
