Lovely fine morning as I arrived up at Oamaru
The wooden frame of the old barn is down
Jim walked the dogs up to Trebarvah
They followed the tracks of the dumper truck down the field
Still some nice waves
and down the hill to home
Managed to mow the very wet lawn
and all ready for the next visitors
Nik Boyle from The Victoria gave me a scoop today - growing in a secret spot in the village are these little Wild Strawberries
Well spotted Nik
Off we went for our walk
Not sure what these are on a shady footpath
The Kestrel was around again
Amazing to see it hovering in the strong wind
Almost high tide
Suddenly Jim spotted the Kestrel on the ground - lovely expression
Waves still rolling in
The Belladonna Lillies with the last few Crinum Lillies towering above them
I then went into Penzance to watch Gry Maritha enter Dry Dock for a repair to a seal - out again on Monday am
While I was waiting I heard an engine roar and there was PZ36 Ajax heading out of the wet dock and round to Newlyn to get ice and then out to the fishing grounds
Gry slowly heading towards the gap
She turned around with the help of the little tug Danmark
Lots of tying down preparing for the water to leave
Think they spotted me
Thought that this was a lovely sight
Panorama of the harbour
What a feast for a Sunday morning ! Poor old Gry what a trouper with a fantastic crew.Great photo's of all the maneuvers .Oamaru always looks so welcoming...I wish ! journey would be a bit much now.Had a glorious day 'oop' north !Weather glorious Blakeney busy, sat on Morston Quay in the sunshine...didn't go for lunch at Morston Manor !!!!! thanks Sue.
ReplyDeleteAh loved Blakeney - we used to take the caravan to Kelling Heath and drive along the coast. Poor Gry was looking rather uncared for in the dry dock this morning - I'm sure she's missed an annual service when she was being leased from the new owners and I was told they weren't doing the normal servicing either. Lyonesse Lady is due for a service in the next few weeks so not sure if they can fit Mali Rose back into the dry dock to repair her. One of the Dry Dock crew was joking they were going to stick gaffer tape on her. Will have to try to find out what is happening. First job for me is to try to roll back the latest Windows 10 update as it's wrecked my photoshop Grr! Sue
