A couple of times a year I find myself at Charles' charming cottage in Lulzworth Cove. That's Charlie and Alex right there on that out-crop over looking St. Oswald's bay
.
One of the highlights every time has to be 'Chris the Hippy'. He perches himself on a rock by the cove and busies himself painting shells and pebbles, adorning them with patterns, pictures and sometimes poems. Tourists like to buy these wares, and it has to be said, at very reasonable prices. He has a bespoke service as well and will paint anything that your heart so desires (within reason). His trousers are caked in a multicoloured crust, several millimetres thick. He achieves his specific and unique colour blends using these trousers as his palette. He has the rigid-legged gait of cowboy; it's hard to imagine the trousers having much flex; though no one has ever seen him walk.

He lives in an inherited mansion on top of the hill and has a girlfriend (who drives him the short distance to work every day in a gleaming Audi).
