Saturday

Another grey and misty morning



The Mount but no Penzance


Just as they got to the bottom of the slope The Spotties came dashing down

Such a friendly bunch
 
We drove up to Marazion Surgery to get our Covid jabs (Over 75's) I'm not there until end May but qualified - on the way back we saw this - the reason for the traffic jam on Friday - not sure it needed to be that big

The family out together
White Valerian for a change
Still lots of low cloud over the bay
Royal Navy Type 45 Destroyer HMS Defender,launched 2009,commisioned 2013.
In the past few days she has kept constant watch on a task group of three Russian warships – frigate Admiral Grigorovich and corvettes Soobrazitelny and Stoikiy – as they sailed through international waters off the coast of the UK.

Winter of Ladram heading out to the fishing grounds
Nice Mallow just starting to flower

Cheeky bunny in the field next to ours as we walked past


Closer view of  HMS Defender in the evening light
I've taken photos of Delphine before - but noticed the huge white mast which I'd not seen before. Turns out she now has 2 - 35x5metre Rotor Sails. They're hoping to achieve a fuel and emission reduction saving between 7 & 10% for this vessel depending on the route
