...to all those clouds, leaf-stripping gales and rough seas last week,
is the fantastic free harvest lying on beaches here. It's a combination
of tree leaves (washed down the burns to the sea) , fresh seaweed and
shells, all pulverised and ground up by heavy seas into loose, friable
black mulch. Best of all, it's been thrown right to the top of the
beach in great windrows close to the road, ready to bag up and load in
the car. It's almost the consistency of home-made compost. Today was
superb, calm and very sunny, and now the garden beds are piled with
black hills of mulch tipped from the sacks, ready for spreading.
