Tuesday

 Very dark and grey start to the day

 The Hawks from RNAS Culdrose were zooming around this morning

Really dark and threatening, but no rain around

Visit from this RIB

I  went to Penzance and the tide was well in

I walked along the road and took this looking Through the Gaps"

Scillonian III in dry dock - no idea what's happened to the  D's

The dry dock team are already painting the old girl - so no major work this year

Chipping off the rust

and painting her bottom ! 

I walked along towards Jubilee Pool and took this looking over Battery Rocks

Down below me I spotted a few of the Pink Vanish bottles that have been turning up all along the coast - I gather that more have appeared along Newlyn Green

Unfortunately Cormac that are renovating the Jubilee Pool have decided to put a screen all along and no peek holes for people to be able to see the progress - fortunately I spotted a gap along the wall and managed to poke the camera in.  Looks like they are still drilling holes in the bottom to "anchor" it all to the rock underneath

Over the top was my last view of the vessel Magsenger 19 as by the time I got home she was on her way to  Baltimore , USA after being in the bay since 20th December

A few splashes onto the Promenade at high tide

Do hope that Cormac do a better job of Jubilee Pool that they've done on these railings that were replaced after the storms of 2013/14

I then walked up into town past my favourite building - The Egyptian House

Love the shapes of glass in this window

and my very big favourite - right at the top, this wonderful Eagle

When I arrived back at the car, Gry Maritha had just arrived back from Scilly - still having to use this side of the dock as the gates to the wet dock are under repair

I then carried on to Newlyn and Trelawney's Fish shop for several lovely big fillets of Hake, to put in the freezer

Not quite as much choice as in the Summer

On such a grey day, the colours of all the boats was a welcome sight

 Especially of course the Penlee Lifeboat the Ivan Ellen

Up on the hard was TO50 Rowse Crabber Harriet Eve , looks like her bottom has been done, but the rest awaiting some TLC

My second view "Through The Gaps"

The wonderful view of the plainer side of The Castle on The Mount

Home again - and a little sun

 Think that this one is definitely Hogweed

Just to check I took the leaf as well !

Boat Cove

The Beach and then back home
