Seals spotted on the Mundesley coast



On Sunday, when we were at the Norfolk Cottage, we decided to go for an early morning walk. The weather was hot and hazy, better than most days in August. The sea was calm and there was a deep layer of golden sand. I saw something black bobbing up and down in the water a few yards from the beach and thought it might be a seal. Told the family and we all looked in the water. Again we saw the seal come up for air, look around as if to say hello and then swim on. We followed it along the beach and just as we were about to turn back it stopped directly opposite us to pose for a photo. It was an amazing sight, we had never seen seals in the wild before and it seemed so tame. Next time we visit we will remember to take the binoculars!

Product of the Month - September





The Product of the month for September is the Red Football wind-up radio. We tested these on the children when we went camping and they were a real favourite. Our daughter thinks the Pink Hearts wind-up radio is so cool and now all her friends want one...


They are ideal Christmas Stocking fillers and will keep the kids amused for hours and they will never keep pestering you for batteries.


What makes these radios even more Eco is the packaging. No plastic in sight - just 100% recycled biodegradable paper and cardboard.
