Night sky at it's absolute finest tonight.
What a blessing a clear sky is after months of what seems like heavy low cloud and rain.

These moments are more special than I realise as the days pass and the light lifts

Night sky always puts things into perspective for me, and a few moments laying down looking up at the stars leaves me feeling in awe of all of it.

Universe. It's got you x

I've decided to stay safe by closing this afternoon/evening. The are fantastic at supporting sea-activities and offering advice. We're here to have fun by the sea. She's powerful and relentless, but changeable. Respect for the waters. Will be back open tomorrow

The RNLI are issuing fresh warnings for coastal locations across the South West. A large swell is currently forecast to hit the region tomorrow, Friday 30 January, bringing the potential for waves up to 15 foot to cause sudden surges on exposed beaches and top over sea fronts and harbour walls, catching people unaware.

While a winter swell is not unusual, surf forecasts are predicting a 17 second swell period. This means a lull between sets of very large, very powerful waves of up to 15 minutes. There is a risk particularly close to high tide in the middle of the day, people walking on beaches or along sea fronts will be faced will a sudden set of surging waves racing 2-300 metres up the beach or topping over sea or harbour walls.

The advice is to keep well away from what will be wet and slippery cliff edges, sea fronts, harbour walls and beaches on Friday.

If you do plan to visit the coast or a waterside location, stay a safe distance from the water, let someone know where you are going and carry a means of calling for help.

If you find yourself in trouble in the water, remember to Float to Live: lie back in the water with your head so far back that your ears are submerged, extend your arms and legs and try to relax as best as you can until you get control of your breathing. If you see someone else in danger in the water, call 999 or 112 and ask for the Coastguard. If you have something that floats that they can hold on to, throw it to them. Don’t go in the water yourself – you could end up in difficulty too.

"I am the dream of awakening. I am the returning of the light. I am the tough green shoot pushing up through the pavestones, I am the first kiss of sunlight on the unfurling petals of the snowdrop. I am the wind which whispers the gentle pull of home to the migratory bird.

I am the drop of ice melting on the mountainside with its great dream of the ocean. I am the sap rising in the blossom tree just before it reveals its sticky buds to the sky; I am the riotous celebration humming away beneath the earth’s mantle of frozen sleep.

I am the rousing of the bee from its winter slumber, and the soft pad of the mother-wolf’s paw on the snow as she prepares to birth her pups. I am hope, potential, rebirth and promise. I am the kindling breath which transforms a spark of inspiration into a blazing torch.

Give me the silent crescent moon rising over the sea and I will build you a bridge of silver light so you can walk across and lie in it. Give me the frost-hardened wilderness and I will lay my cloak of radiant green life over it.

I am Brigid. I am the fierce protectress of the sacred fire.

Tonight I bestow my gifts of power and courage at the hearth of your soul. Power to shed all that which no longer serves you, and courage to clear your heart and mind for the dawn that awaits you. For I am the longing of the spirit which refuses to be consumed by a narrative of fear and chooses instead to place itself vivaciously on the side of love.

I am the song which cannot be silenced, for it is carried deep in the bones of the land. I am the flame which cannot be doused, for it is kept aglow in the hearts of the free. I am the wellspring of knowledge and the milk of the life-force. From the darkness of the earth I give light to the fires that will forge the new world.

I am the stirring in your belly that knows what you're capable of, and just how much your gifts are needed now. For you are as much a part of this world as the rivers and the forests, the creatures and the stars in the night sky.

I am the Exalted, Goddess of land, sea and sky. I am the fire within which will not be contained any longer. I am the quickening, I am the serpent uncoiling.

I am Imbolc."

"January this year feels like it is unfolding somewhat differently.  Perhaps as a retaliation to what is going on in the wider world, but the start of 2026 has led me to noticing the smaller changes closer to home. 

In particular to our beach here at Seatown. 

The wild winter weather - the storms, the seemingly relentless rain and the winds - has transformed our beach line quite drastically this year in a relatively short space of time. 

High tides and the shingle being dragged from beneath your feet. 

The sea washing up all the way to the car park and encroaching on the boundaries. 

The undulations of the beach being pushed up, then pulled back - the river carving wider exits and large stones being unearthed. 

January is the time for pause, of how we want the rest of the year to be and how we want it to unfold. 

The low slithers of light that break through at the end of the day are somehow that much more appreciated when everything else feels so dark. 

It mimics our small window that focuses attention on the landscape, rather than it taking it all in - a reminder to stay focused on what’s ahead. 

A small cliff fall covers the shingle in grey sludge, a single hopeful fossil hunter scouring the scene. 

The rain, thick and heavy. 

The stillness from the Anchor, taking a pause from the patrons whilst the annual refresh takes place. 

And yet - amongst what some may see as gloom - January has also provided light. 

Fresh and crisp days, and calm, icy seas. 

The slow return of regular sauna groups. 

New faces, familiar faces, faces with soft intentions for the year to be kind to themselves and take an hour - or two - from the day to be still and breathe. 

The slither of the new moon over the unexpected - but welcomed - calm tropical-coloured sky, complete with heavy, ominous clouds. 

So, here is to the end of January - having already had both a full moon and a very dark new one. 

To treading gently - with ourselves, our friends, family, and those further afield. 

To not rushing through the year at warp speed. 

To centre more and go with intension for 2026. 

To pacing ourselves. 

To breathe deep. 

And of course - always - to sweat." Charlie x
