#EBJCottageliving / Esther is a hard (cottage) core lady. Her life didn't change much when her fisherman husband never returned from the sea. She maintains their seaside cottage in Brindelton Bay, picks berries, fishes and takes care of the chickens and Penny. Her life changed a bit more when her daughter died in a Magnolia Promenade paddle steamer accident and her grandson Fenwick moved in. Esther still loves the sea, and ponders will Fenwick, terrified of water, ever join grandma for a swim?
