The low cloud and fog moving away
Scillonian III passing Mousehole
Jim took the dogs out through the village
and down Boat Cove lane
It was really warm compared to yesterday
Nice sky
Fun in Boat Cove
Quite a few surfers
Really looking like a Winter beach now with so much sand moved from the top
Off home they went
Meanwhile I went into Penzance
Harbour looking lovely
I was just in time to see Mermaid II lifted back into the water
Adrian Thomas & Master Thomas
Looking very smart and with new Mermaid
Nice view through the gaps
Obviously still in dry dock, but up for sale for £3,000.000
The hole gets bigger
piece been cut out of the bulb
Shopping done and new glasses collected I headed back to the car park - Mermaid now with fenders on
Boat Pen filling up
Caught Jim's bug for panoramas
Lovely sky as I drove down to Lidl in Wherrytown, so I nipped onto the prom for a photo
Looking over the bay to Ednovean Lane with Trebarvah Lane above
Trebarvah
As I was driving home the fogs came back as a weather front passed us by - but that didn't put the beach goers off
Church looking rather lovely in the mist as we went out with the dogs
You know what should be there !
There was sadly a dead young Seal on the beach - which I have reported to the Cornwall Wildlife Strandings
Noticed that Longcliff is back on the market - It is built of mundic block in a bad state - Planning permission was refused a while ago as the plan was rather over the top
What a lovely Autumn day..nice to see folks enjoying half term.Three million pounds !!!!!it has seemed a disaster from the start!the wonderful Gry is in Scilly this morning...what would they have done without her? Enjoyed Penzance...always something to see.Thank you Sue.macca.
ReplyDeleteThey were really lucky that the sale fell through or Gry might have been gone - Mali Rose was never given the OK to do the trip full time - Gry will be battling the Winter seas once more. Sue
DeleteWill three million pounds cover the costs incurred in bringing the Mali Rose up to spec.? There seems to be an ominous silence regarding the proposed sale and future plans.. in the meantime,Sue,thanks for the wonderful photographs and the tantalizing snippets ABS
ReplyDeleteWondered if all the work in dry dock is trying to right all the bad bits, but with her history now not sure whether anyone would want her. Pleased you enjoy the photos - need more sunshine grey is so boring ! Sue
