Oh, I don't know. What with the very mild winter, your local council
should have vast quantities of salt lying around that it intended for
icy roads, and now doesn't know what to do with. Add that to the boggy
ground from the extraordinarily wet weather we are still having, and I
am sure that it will be a simple matter for you to create a saltmarsh.
Ideal for samphire!


Well, er, yes, though I was actually thinking about plain (rock)
samphire :-)
