|
|
Last night about 7ish i guess i was walking along the sea wall on Canvey with my mate Sonny D i looked over to the Kent side and i saw a shadow moving about a foot over the waves about 20 feet from the waters edge i watched it for about 2 minutes then got distracted and looked back and it had gone and there were no birds around (Well i mean of the flying type ).
any ideas people?

If it was down by the jetty past shell beach, a ship sank there in 1902 from Portland. _________________ The sprit world is all around us. |
