You're 100% correct there. It's great outside. I was gonna take a short video of the river flowing, but I don't think my camera would've got it very good.

This was taken at low tide, too much water to get out at the rivermouth - must have been a 10 to 12 foot drop....

All the pictures are fab! Its amazing to see just how much water we had. I especially liked the photo of the one at the pier with the ten foot drop between the level of the river and the start of the sea. I had heard about it but never actually saw it so it was hard to imagine.
