Well some interesting things this week. Managed to paint lighthouse in watercolour

Could have been a bit better

Also thought I might have a go at the birds we've been trying to identify...

Little Egret

Saturday went to Yaverland... people having a lovely time

but if you turn to your right - what a sight. Isn't that fantastic?

Went sailing to Yarmouth on Sunday. Goggy start. Red Funnel ferry managed to turn left too early ending up on the mud off the esplanade. However, to do this it managed to crash into a number of boats and sink one of them....

Yes, that is a mast.....

Fog slowly cleared as we went down to Yarmouth

Had a roast lunch in the Wheatsheaf followed by a walk

Bertie having a good time in the woods

Then back to East Cowes in the afternoon

Square rigger caught us up, but he was under engine!

Wednesday went to meet up for lunch with Daniel, Catherine and Alice.  Traffic is awful on the mainland.  Had a lovely time, they were all looking well, and Alice is growing so quickly and is such a happy little girl.  Managed to get an earlier ferry home, thank goodness.
