Thursday

 Really bitter wind this morning

So just a short trip up and around the spoil heap 

and down the path which was running with rain water again  

I popped up to Oamaru as the New Year visitors had left 

Darn cold and windy up there 

Might have to rethink this as it looks like the palm tree has become a plaything for the dogs 

Lots of white water but nothing like as wild as the North Coast 

I popped into Penzance - took this of Scillonian III in dry dock 

Afternoon walkies past this Arum Lilly in St Piran's Way 

Good to see one of the boats out netting - been next to no fish since Christmas 

Sand in the water 

Still some blue sky around 

But windier out at Maen-dhu Point 

Wooster said "definitely windy" 

I have a feeling that the beach will be looking very different when we see it next
