While holidaying in Dorset, my friend and I had the opportunity to visit her family's beach hut at Friars Cliff Beach. Even though we are in October, it was nice and mild this morning, so it was the perfect time to go down to the beach hut for a nice cuppa by the sea. I can never remember which hut it is as there are a lot of them, but my friend's pooch knew exactly which one it was.
I haven't had instant coffee for a while, but my friend rummaged through the cupboards and pulled out a jar of Marks and Spencer's Italian finest instant coffee! 😁 Even though I prefer coffee pods, I'm not a snob when it comes to coffee and it would still hit the spot. My friend opted for a cup of green tea which I thought looked like weasel p*ss!
We grabbed the camping chairs and set them up just outside the beach hut, facing the lovely view of the sea. Beach huts in the UK can either be bought or hired out and are a traditional feature of British seaside towns. They have been used by people to enjoy the beach and sea for many years.
The beach was a mix of sand and shingle, making it a good spot for beachcoming. I enjoy walking along the sands, looking at the shells and stones. It was the perfect morning taking in the sea air and having a nice cup of coffee.
The pooch enjoyed it too, swimming in the sea, digging holes, chasing after pebbles, and making friends with passers-bys, so it was a good start to the day. I still prefer coffee pods, though. 😁
