Go Ormering

2nd one down. Headed into town to get some cycle gear so that I can start my training program for the more physical events, then started searching for some wellies as it was such a beautiful day on the Island today. At about 12:30 headed out to L'ree Bay to go Ormering. As we drove to L'ree the bays were literally swarming with people all doing the same as we had planned. Stopped at L'ree and headed out. Very quickly found our first Ormer, and originally the intention was to find one, remove bring it home and cook it etc, when it came down to it, I just could not take it home, so a a photo later, and the luckiest ormer at L'ree was returned from whence it came. Carried on for about another 1hr, and came across another couple. We also saw different types of crabs.
When we had finished we went back onto the beach and a flask of soup & coffee were consumed. The off to the pub as I started my "Drink 40 different beers" challenge.
