Ad Lib 159

 

Two fishers take their turn. To stand watchfully amid the sedge. Salt waters lapping at their feet. One avian. . . . 

. . . . the other a wader-clad human.


We are between weather systems today. The morning, a trifle grey and still. With brighter and breezier conditions filling in behind. 


Stargazer intends to head east on tomorrow morning's ebb.


There should be sufficient water left, by the time dawn twilight arrives, to slip out of the Northney Channel and over the Chichester Bar.


There to meet the start of the east-going tide. As it swirls out of the Solent, inside the Owers and around Selsey Bill.
