The lonely life of a dog-sitter

We're currently looking after Ollie the one year-old Collie while his owners are away on a belated honeymoon. I took him down to the nearby shore so that he could run free and I could enjoy the sound of the Atlantic breaking on the rocks and pulling on the shingle. Rather sad to think that that only 80 years ago the shoreline as a working croft extended further to the left of the picture.
