Trogslight Stuff and THE CLIFF INCIDENT
Hello, two posts in a day. Productivity! (Or just me wanting to do anything but revision...)
Today I walked into Trogslight with Lithium. Oh yeah, Trogslight is an alias for where I live, sorry that it doesn't fit to the periodic table theme... for a second, I considered "Periodville" before realising what a terrible idea it was. So, Trogslight it is.
We went into a graveyard to look around and took some pictures...

We went into a graveyard to look around and took some pictures...
These were just a few. I used to go into graveyards all the time with my mum, we'd try to find funny names on the headstones. My favourite was "Silas Hake"- probably because it sounded like a vampire name, like Silas from "The Graveyard Book" (Neil Gaiman, read his stuff I'm addicted to it yet traumatised- I watched Coraline when I was six and read the book when I was nine. To this day, I am paranoid that I'll discover that my cupboard is a portal to the Otherworld).
We went into a park but left quickly because there were too many children and I think there was a sign that said "no under 12s". We went to a market- there were one or two nice things there but most stuff was just overpriced also, there was an annoying guy that kept trying to sell us bacon rolls "only £3". Bitch, I could make that at home for free. Ew, I don't talk like that! After, we went to Co-Op to get food, I got a tiger bread roll, Em-- I mean LITHIUM got a cheese twist. We went into some shops- mainly charity shops where I bought a dress (it a really nice dress too- black and flowy with some little white crosses- not like crucifixes- on them. It's v. comfortable- I'm wearing it now) and a black t shirt. I don't know why people have prejudice against buying clothes from charity shops, sure, there's a lot of hideous old people clothes (no offence... just slap me, okay?) but a lot of the time you'll find some really nice things way cheaper than you would in a department store.
We got ice cream, went to another park then walked to... let's call it Perilous Point (I'm really bad at coming up with names). Perilous Point is one end of where the bay ends, it's pretty rocky but good to sit on and just look out at the sea. We reached the end, that's when we noticed a large, very steep pile of massive rocks and earth and ground. On top of this extremely large pile of rocks and earth was a grassy bit. I said it would be fun to climb we did, a large distance, up the large pile of sharp rocks and earth and dust and ground until we reached the grassy bit at the top. The first thing we saw once reaching the top was a fence which made me think oh, this doesn't look good. On the fence was something large and white... maybe the back of a sign. I crossed the fence, to see what the maybe-sign said. When I saw it I felt so stupid. "CLIFF EDGE. DANGER. DO NOT CROSS"
"Oh crap. Never mind, we'll just go back a different way."
I thought things would be alright, until I looked up. There was a building with large windows and a sign saying "COASTWATCH" and guess what, glaring at us from the window was a Coastguard Lady Person (?) who did not look impressed. She said something into her walky-talky and, oh shit, we got scared. So we briskly walked off, hoping that no one would ever speak of it again, feeling extremely stupid. How did we not realise that the large pile of, giant sharp rocks, dust, earth etc with a grassy area on the top--- was a freaking cliff!
After that minor incident, we walked home and Lithium's mum came to pick her up. We told no one.
So, that was a rather tragic day.
Okay, bye.
