Sit ye down

Someone had made, and left, two hazel chairs on the beach. 
They looked fragile but  green wood is tough and pliable and they took an adult weight.
You could sit and watch the low tide ebb out and flow in or you could take advantage of the exposed rocks to gather winkles.
Which is what I did  alongside a local man who filled his buckets at the speed of knots and told me to avoid the white ones ('they'll put you in hospital'), fulminating the while about the  latest government fiasco.

The winkles were delicious as tapas with some blueberry and basil vinegar (extra).
