Just in case you were planning to come to Formby, you ought to be aware that high tides will reduce the amount of beach available for play or parking.
With high tides along our coastline this weekend, you might be best planning a visit for another time.

Time to relax more, I'm going to take a break from social media, enjoy your weekend
Enough said!
Isn't it a shame that so many visitors can't be bothered to take home all the stuff they could be bothered to bring with them in the first place! https://t.co/HyGad3TUP8

I wish our house had visitors like this, red squirrels have been spotted nearby on the estate, but despite lots of trees near the house, none have been tempted.
Still, we live in hope, have a good day. Incidentally these are great photos.

Lots of jellyfish have been spotted on Formby beach, one visitor even reported that they got stung. Mind where you tread.
Did you know that a group of #jellyfish is called a smack? If you spot a jelly at the seaside but you’re not sure what species it is then check out our handy guide -> https://t.co/9tTQrdtiSB

This important debate is happening today, let's hope our MPs act on the urgency of this crisis
Tomorrow MPs from across Parliament will be debating the UK's priorities for the COP26 climate conference.

We urge politicians to put nature centre stage at COP26 and recognise the vital role nature-based solutions play in tackling the climate crisis. 🌍https://t.co/gpyHVgyN9a pic.twitter.com/dViqtWnlY3
