Ann had booked a birdwatching trip on the Hydrogen, a Thames barge. I had a coffee at the Beachbox, and damn fine coffee it was! Then I wandered around the dock looking for images and did not notice the rising tide, which eventually came all the way up to the blue shelter (Pic.2). I took off my shoes and socks and waded through to sit in the shelter and wait for Ann, although the fixed part of the walkway (Pic.8) was by then underwater. She wasn't able to disembark until half an hour after the due arrival time.
