THANK YOU very much to Cromer RNLI for getting my lobster to the top of Beeston Bump and securing it.
I came up the opposite side of the Bump, so by the time I arrived I was embarrassed to see that all the hard work had been done. And I found that the battery in my camera had just run out, so thanks too, to John Morgan for sending me these pictures.
The lobster looks dwarfed by the Cromer lifeboat crew, even though half of them are kneeling down!
He looks quite impressive really, in his jewel colours with the full sun on him.
Here is the first pair of 'proper walkers' to pass by. They were keen to know how long the lobster would stay on top of the Bump, as they had plans to bring a group of children on the walk in May.
There was a reporter from the EDP taking notes and photos, so hopefully we will see a story in Monday's paper.
Now, to get back to that painting on my very first blog, and see if I can work out how to use those acrylics!
Just caught up with the tale of your lobster. It looks fantastic will deffinitely have to take a trip up the bump to see it in all it's glory.

I've been up there twice today already and I've got to roast some lamb now. Can we leave it till Wednesday evening perhaps?
And yes, that's me grinning amongst the lifeboat men.

Is that you grinning at the back of all those lifeboat men?
