THIS is the log of how we
went to the sea by degrees.
Hoar frost crusted the milk- bottles on the doorstep at 8 a.m. The first blossom of the almond tree glowed pink in a halo of fog. A cat stalking a bird left a spoor of paws on the crisp white carpet of the lawn. It was a cold March! morning. Temperature 45 degrees.
By nine, the sun had wrestled through, and was casting long wintry shadows. 50 degrees.
-11 A.M. We had meant to make the journey leisurely. Now we had no choice. Tha Brighton road had become a procession of cars, pompous limousines, panting crocka. "The only things missing were the "charas." March's whimsical summer had caught them out of season. A perspiring A.A. man told me he had counted 2,000 cars in one hour. 53 Dogroos

Contemptuous of the hustle, they held their angling competition in the muddy Mole, sitting reflectively for huurs, catch. ing midget fish.
