Tuesday

 Fine but very windy morning

 Jack up platform Seafox 1 being towed into the bay by tugs Zeus of Finland and Thor to shelter from the wind and expected storm

Pulled her further into the bay - then we left on another plant buying trip 

Burncoose Nursery  - we took the dogs into the gardens for a little run around 

Stunning huge flowers 

Wow ! what more can I say 

More beauties along the drive 

We bought a lovely Hydrangea as well as a few more 

When we got home Mali Rose was out in the bay in very different conditions to yesterday 

Seafox 1 had let it's legs down and was on its own

Early afternoon walkies as another area of heavy rain and thunder & lightening was moving up from the South and we didn't know quite which way it was going to go 

Amazing sky today 

The farmer has cut the sides of the field so the footpath can be used 

Wooster and Tilly say "Thank you Mr Farmer" 

The two tugs waiting for the weather to calm down 

Arklow View leaving the bay and making for Les Sables D'olonnes 

The black cloud was the Western end of the storm cloud that has dropped so much rain onto the East side of The Lizard causing terrible flooding through the village of Coverack - all are OK but many properties have been flooded 

Closer view of Seafox 1 - they're usually used to support off-shore windfarms 

Mali Rose stayed out and got almost as far as Lizard Point before turning back - she'll be having to tackle far worse seas than this on her Winter trips to Scilly 

She's back in the Wet Dock now
