Friday

 

Waiting for walkies!

Arklow Brave at anchor

Off they go - grass is growing so fast Maisie will soon disappear

Since the sun was out I decided to go and check that the new sun shade umbrella was OK on the end patio - we sat there during the recent hot weather and were roasting

Another huge shower cloud

Sun shining on SCIII as she passes Newlyn

They met Tegen with her little visitor "Mini me" Wilson from the same line of Pembrokeshire Corgis

Later Maisie went back out to the field with Jim who was weeding and seeding his bare patch where the bonfire was. She had a lovely time watching the Swallows and checking out the people walking past

Arklow Brave setting off for Gijon Spain

The lovely Pellew passing Mousehole

Afternoon and unfortunately it had got much colder and windier again

Parking field is ready for the competitors in the Lizard to Land's End Classic Quarter endurance race tomorrow

Distant shot of Scillonian III returning this afternoon. No trip tomorrow due to weather and the fact that she needs attention to her port engine. I'm sure there is havoc with so many people unable to travel until Monday or even Tuesday!

Since Jim used some of the soil from his compost area around the bonfire we have suddenly noticed that there are lots of seedlings - Poppies and Echiums so it will have to be a "No Mow" area

Thursday

 

Showers and sunshine with rainbows first thing

Lots of white-caps 

Very cold and windy again - not like Summer at all!

Arklow Brave came in from Waterford now at anchor

 Not much surfing going on

One of the Echiums has now got multiple flowers

Wednesday

 Many thanks for your kind comments after we said goodbye to Wooster. Maisie seems to be fine and coping well.

Tuesday evening as the light was fading I spotted Super Yacht Adix - three masted sailing vessel. It seemed to be heading into the bay, but then turned and went round Land's End to Kinsale. It looks magnificent in full sail

Scillonian III setting off this morning with a very strong wind and disturbed sea

We'd love her to run around more to see if she can slim down a bit

Too windy for Swallows

We were setting off for the afternoon walk between showers, when it started to rain so into the field we went

Caught in the act ! 

One of the many heavy showers moving East
