Tuesday

 

Fine morning again, but a little cooler

Arklow Beach at anchor

Border Force vessel Valliant heading out across the bay

Morning Charlie

Down on the beach the Gweek Seal Sanctuary people had brought some recovered seals to release

They are often reluctant - been enjoying the hi-life with all food provided

The boards are used to try to keep them in the water

Scillonian III passing Mousehole

Afternoon walkies with a lot of dark clouds

Arklow Beach crossing the bay to anchor near The Lizard - hoping for some shelter from the expected wind

Nice patterns in the water

Huge dark cloud to the North

Monday

 

Early start for us all as car was going in for MOT & service - chilly start although the sun was out

Scillonian III slightly backed out even though it was only 8.15am - low tide !

TO70 Bon Accord - seem to see it most days at the moment

Border Force vessel Valiant heading in towards Newlyn

Lovely fine and warm afternoon

Millie came racing up the hill

Joined by Cassie

Bonnie last one up - she is only a little younger than Wooster and doing OK

Poor Cedar tree - looking bad from both sides since Storm Goretti - but the Crows are still nesting in there

Sunday

     

Lovely sight early this morning - Beautiful Irene crossing the bay after her stay in Newlyn up on the hard - being inspected !

Still a few nice waves

Looked up and spotted that Irene had crossed over a little and was heading for Porthleven where they were holding the Food & Drink Festival she then sailed on round The Lizard and has sailed up the Carrick Roads and then River Fal

Not a great photo, but a welcome sight for everyone who wants to drive through Penzance - this is the tug Sea Vixen towing the barge carrying the huge metal frame of the Dry Dock Bridge - They will need the massive mobile crane to lift it into place - I gather possibly Tuesday

Saw several Shield Bugs when I was out on the drive cleaning the car. - She's off for her service and MOT in the morning

Afternoon walkies warm but no real sun today

Lots of Bush Vetch in one of the fields

Maisie dashing off to say Hello to Sally

Samsa dashing past

We found a collapsible pet water bowl on the footpath and have put it on the wall right opposite the five barred gate to Maisie's field
