I feel the same when I'm by the sea but then I always wonder would it be the same if I lived it and saw it every day?4

Thanks @Sun_Addict @MovingForwards @savingholmes @mark55man @WelshmansDaughter
@WelshmansDaughter I can't see myself ever tiring of the sea. There is a part of me that is 5 years old, sitting in the back of a small car saying 'Are we nearly there, can we see the sea yet?' and the whoosh of excitement on seeing the sea, has not diminished ever!
SW has been good in that it has made me mindful of my eating again. Immediately I am eating more fruit and veggies.
I've ordered a veggie box fortnightly to help me stay on track.
Tomorrow's list is:
PO
Print off a document
Make a curry
Swimming membership enquiry
(FROG!! ) Changing an account to online
Hope everyone had a good weekend

I adore Scotland and I don't dislike the cold. I visit when I can but it is too far from family so not an option...
