..."it isn't."
"It is."
"Isn't."
"Is."
Honestly, my swimming friend, J, and I were bickering like a couple of five year olds. We were standing on the footpath in front of Hataitai Beach, and contemplating the sea.
One of my favourite readers had left a comment about a photo I had recently taken of the beach. She mentioned that the water was a lovely blue.
J disputed this. She gazed across to the sea. "It's not blue. It's never blue."
"Come on, it is."
"Isn't."
"What colour is it, then?" I demanded.
"It's .... green/grey."
"It's blue. Soft blue."
"Green/grey..."
"Tisn't." I was barely an inch away from a tantrum.
It seemed, so was J. "Tis...," she said determinedly.
And we were off again. Goodness ... friends have split up over lesser subjects.

Here's a picture I took today, after our 6th swim for the month.
