Today's destination.
Blackpool Sands on the South Devon coast.
It's a privately owned beach. Always immaculately kept and with a lovely ethically sourced restaurant.
@stueytheround I’ve never been to one of those. I hear that the Day Star attempts to roast people like hot dogs there.
@EnochianEntropy 🤣🤣
I am staying in the shade for sure!
@stueytheround Honestly I’m shocked that England has beaches.
You have a reputation as a pale, pasty people.
@EnochianEntropy Except in Summer when we turn bright red 🤣🤣

@EnochianEntropy @stueytheround You should definitely stay away. 😏 With what you've shared about yourself on CoSo--that you're tall, athletic, and can cook among others--you might find yourself with a terminal case of attachment. 🤭
@danielbsmith @stueytheround I mean, I wouldn’t say I’m athletic - I enjoy video games and cooking too much to have an athletic build, but I am tall.
@EnochianEntropy @stueytheround Given your rowing exploits I think you must be more athletic than you think. I bet there are professional athletes who cannot match some of what you can do. Anyway, take what I said as a compliment because that's how I meant it. I think you're going places so keep moving forward. 👍
@danielbsmith @stueytheround Totally took it as a compliment - thanks.
I’ve done pretty good at my rowing work - but a good 500m is about 1:30, and I’m at 2:30 reliably.
For someone who was/is as out of shape as I was when I began, I’m doing well, I think I have a surprisingly high threshold of fitness or something? I dunno.
@stueytheround It's gorgeous, Stuey! Have fun. If I was on the coast right now, I'd wave at you, but sadly, I'm too far inland for you to see me. 😁
@stueytheround Afternoon 🙂 I hope you all have a great time and remember to use sunscreen and drink lots of water. (an ice cream or iced lolly would be a good idea too 🍦 )
@stueytheround Nice!
