@radiolento.bsky.social I'm listening to broadcast 285 recorded at Chesil beach.
The waves roll in and with them millions of shingle "dance" ... after a few minutes I realise that my heart feels lighter. ππ

'Ship burial' in the sculpture park
View down over Chesil Bank from Tout Quarry
Sculpture in Tout Quarry
Obelisk on Portland Bill with the sea beyond (and my son in front)
Fabulous walk around Tout Quarry, high on the clifftop above #ChesilBeach: one of my favourite places on #Portland & now home to a beautiful sculpture park. They say Portland must be pretty much hollow after all that quarrying... Rounded off with a trip to Portland Bill (10yo boy for scale). #Dorset
#Moonfleet (1895) J. Meade Faulknerβs great novel of smuggling and kidnap, and Moonfleet Manor now, much expanded and a very welcoming hotel, on the shores of the lagoon behind #ChesilBeach; a wonderful setting. Photos: 28.11.25
On Chesil Beach today.
I rather lost the level of my horizon there, didn't I?
Too busy trying to ensure my socks stayed dry...
A lesson for life.

Seaview of an island on the left with a long pebble beach extending to the right. Closer is a long platform with buildings known as Portland Breakwater. The sky is clear with some white clouds coming in off the eastern horizon. The sea is relatively calm and reflecting the sunlight.
At Nothe Forte yesterday for their Family Science Fair, volunteering for the Etches Collection stall. Not a bad view on a lunch break. Portland to the left and Chesil Beach in the far distance.

A walk on top of the Chesil bank yesterday in the heat. Found a sea fan (left it there) and a huge tree trunk (also left in place!). #chesil

I took time out to pop down to Cogden Beach. I'd hoped to find some solitary bees, but it was too chill and windy. Can't complain about the tranquility and solitude, and wonderful to hear the skylarks above the adjacent fields

A ruined, tall stone wall, part of the Benedictine Abbey at Abbotsbury. It was demolished after the Dissolution in 1539.
The medieval chapel of St Catherine of Alexandria south of Abbotsbury. A weather beaten, quite bleak stone building on top of a grassy hill.
A concrete pillbox dating from WW2 sits in a field wearing a windswept hat of green foliage.
A view looking along the stones of Chesil Beach. The sea with a white line of breakers, is on the right. The sky is grey with cloud.
Extremely breezy and damp walk around Abbotsbury and down to Chesil Beach today. History, medieval and more modern, is much in evidence.

Stopped for a lunch break amongst the beautiful backdrop of the Dorset hills and the distant coastline. Afterwards, we went away from the coast and headed north.
