Time and Tide (PiPs) HFF!

Time and Tide  (PiPs)   HFF!
Erosion, Corrosion and a nice cup of tea. (please see PiPs)

Sea Defences (Groynes) at Porlock, Somerset. Time and Tide have played their part and the wood looks ragged and worn

I have added 'Ragged Wood' by Fleet Foxes as a link for Sight and Sound

www.youtube.com/watch?v=VExmgC0z9U0

and Donovan's 'Split Wood Not Atoms'
