Serpents at the seaside




Today involved a trip to the beach to a place called Barmouth, so called because it is the where you find the mouth of the Bar. A huge serpent sort of beast with a large mouth that eats things as is traditional with huge serpents.

It was a nice day although there was the one cloud that insisted in hovering about between us and the sun, but it was OK because in general it was quite warm.  Anyway that was about it nothing else happened so I am off to draw the Bar now . . . time permitting as a picture of it will give it far more street cred, than me just sort of saying we saw this huge thing that ate folk and scared the donkeys. They did not look happy donkeys having to spend their day giving small children rides up to a post and back, It was not very far even for a small child or bored donkey. Still the Donkeys cheered up once the serpent ate the children and the parents ran about screaming, I’m sure the next high tide will remove all the blood and bits.

The sand dunes appear to get bigger every time we go there too, but it has been a while even the falling down barn has been repaired. . . . . .when did that happen.


I know this is very boring but I have Writers Block and I have been out all day (at the beach). . . .

  1. I have always thought that Serpents Eating Children might delight donkeys, I just didn't realize it be a teleBision show. I think I was thinking about a play or musical.

    1. Donkeys are cute beasts and tend to be overloaded. . . . A bit like myself.

    2. My best friend Susie has mules. I have a lawn mower and weed eater. I just now heard one of them in action waking me up.

      Is your overloaded condition self imposed, and is it a joyous occasion fiLLed with fruitful enterprise and prizes and surprises?

  2. I had Barmouth this morning. Isn't that where you vomit uncontrollably but still manage to smooch with someone who can taste and verify the putrid contents of your oral cavity?

    1. I assume they were not a stranger.

    2. It's probably better if they are a stranger. Can you imagine having to look someone in the eye every day after that event?

  3. I generally avoid the beach unless I'm just driving past it. Sounds like you had a day.

    1. It was a lovely day although we are not good on soft sand, this can result in falling over.
