Wednesday

Just good friends

Grey and damp morning

Kassel

THV Patricia still at anchor

Shower clouds approaching

Difficult to focus on SCIII in the gloom as she set out

This handsome chap is Richard

Latest arrival Fri Gdansk

Sadly couldn't identify this naval vessel that spent some time out there

Lots of whitecaps 

Sun setting behind some cloud

Tuesday

 

Very foggy start to the day but it cleared quite quickly

The castle starting to appear

Off she goes!

An early start for me as we had discovered water leaking from the central heating through a light switch downstairs - courtesy of our little four legged visitor we had heard under the floorboard. I spent the morning taking two chest of drawers apart so that we could move them & get at the right spot. Super plumber John managed to find the leak and replace the nibbled joint. The Pest guy has already been once but think he needs to return !!

Long hover out near the 'Mopus Buoy

Charlie again

What a sweetheart !

Kassel still there and to the right Buoy Tendering vessel Mair that had been assisting THV Patricia with the Sevenstones Lightship

THV Patricia

The sun suddenly appearing beneath the dark cloud

Pleased to report that the bedroom furniture is all put back together 

Monday

 

Cloudy start again

Arklow Raider

Beach looking clean at that end

Lots of seed pods on the Wild Iris

General Cargo vessel Kassel arriving in the bay

The clouds started to open up and some blue sky appeared

Nice scene 

Arklow Raider leaving

Time to cut the field with all the Pampas Grasses

Maisie keeping an eye on the noisy interloper

Afternoon walkies and the field was all done

Lots of very dark clouds around the bay

Up on the next field

Kassel now at anchor

Charlie

Purple Dead Nettle flowering on the spoil heap

Amazing to see these little Ferns that have sprung to life for the third time this year - it dies down in a drought
