Between The Tides

"Travel west from anywhere in Britain, and sooner or later you will reach these rocks, or others like them: sea, shore, cliff. They are familiar - they are a holiday."

"Not only animal, but vegetable life as well. The giant algae that never grow in the open sea; the green-brown sea-wracks. Dotted with periwinkles; labyrinths and parades of colour."
