Quick one. On shore.
Happy to give nudges. If you notice I've solved, please tell me about avenues you've explored so I can nudge you in the right direction and not off a cliff.

On the beach baby!

I’ll have champagne tomorrow. It’ll be my 65th birthday.

A mug would be the perfect gift …

There's part of me that worries this is too simple, but count me on shore!

Ashore - crowded beach this week?!
If I don't win a mug, I can always make one... ;) but it won't have the same cachet.

Joining the increasingly crowded beach.

I made the mistake of overestimating the difficulty last week, but won't do that for this one as the XWord Rabbit is already lamenting the expected lack of entries.
