The last day of the Great British Beach Clean week, and several degrees cooler than the first one, seven days ago.

But Audra, Ian, Maxine, Maura and I are made of stern stuff and we struck out to collect any wind-blown or dropped litter on Eastney beach.

It was surprisingly clean, but we still collected litter caught in the sea kale, beer caps and drinks cans from the warmer weather, a rainbow knife and a pair of child's beach shoes (and definitely no children on the beach!)

But I was the only one daft enough to end the beach clean with a dip in the (surprisingly warm) sea!
