As luck would have it the weather brightened up beautifully for day 3 of our holiday so we went out and ate the most beautiful fish and chips for lunch at The Coastguard Cafe.
This is supposed to be the best fish and chips on the island and they were delicious. There is something special about eating fish and chips by the sea.
It would have been rude not have an ice cream for dessert so we went off in search of some new flavours: Gin and Pink Grapefruit sorbet for me, Banoffee Pie for my husband and the kids devoured a Kinder Bueno flavour and some kind of Chocolate/Marshmallow concoction.
Feeling like we'd gained about half a stone in just a few hours we decided to try out a bit of crabbing in the creek that afternoon. We purchased the equipment we needed from the shop next to the ice cream parlour and waited for the tide to come in. I don't know the first thing about crabbing so I just sat with the dogs and observed.
My husband is a pretty good fisherman but it turns out that this doesn't equate to being good at crabbing so nobody caught anything but they all had fun trying.
It was a very pleasant way to pass the afternoon and the dogs even dipped their paws into the water
