Tuesday

 Scillonian III making her way out of the bay and into the strong wind - must have been a lumpy trip !
 Agapanthus are such wonderful long lasting flowers
 Fast moving caterpillar

 We took the high path towards Marazion Cemetery
 Long queue for the ferries to The Mount
 The ferries with their hoods up !
 Literally milliond of Cauliflowers
 We assume that this field is a trial of various different plants
 The massive renovation of Castle Gayer right down in Marazion by Scott and Kerry Davidson looks like it may be nearing its completion - it has been around 3 years
 The Cauliflowers are growing at an amazing rate
Lovely light this morning
 Looking over Trenow Cove
 Still a long queue and the lasers are coming out to race

 Wondered what the red was - it was a gardners tractor & trailer !
 The footpath is looking very prretty at the moment
 Must have been interesting conditions for the Lasers as the wind was really strong

 Time for a coffee at The Cabin
 Busy in the water again
 Our Echium plantation just outside the garden gate
 This afternoon the potato fields that were never harvested last year were being given the treatment by this machine - whatever it was ! - lots of rotating blades !
 The potatoes that have been in the ground for over a year, now exposed
 Rather more cloud this afternoon
 The last of the Chicory flowers !
 Quite cool, although the wind had dropped a bit

    Thanks Sue....your photos make lovely start to the day ! Our Agapanthus are doing well too ! (even the white ones! ) as you rightly say long lasting flowers, we had never seen any until we went to Scilly.Love the view 'Through the Tamarisks' ! been warm here and the ground very dry and dusty again.Agree with your comments about the Scilly survey...August is only part of the story ! thanks again.macca.

      We're really pleased that we made the most of yesterday - rain all day today and my camera is faulty - will try to find someone local to repair it otherwise I have to send it to Bristol. I'm going to have to use the old one that keeps saying, "please turn me off and on again" so some rude language might be spoken ! Sue

Have had to add the word verification as I am getting lots of obscene messages in the comments
