After cleaning

with the word dilip on it which is the Indian God for looking after blokes
I think

Hopping for 22 karat's or so cos them Indians love the good stuff
plus had a 2 shilling coin and some other older ones wich are still in the cleaning proses.
Cant wait to get back tomorrow must of been 2 meters of sand taken from the beach.
This has been the first time in months that a storm has taken sand and not added to it let the good times roll :D
