I nearly didn’t go for a walk this morning. I woke up at around 10 to 6. If I had lingered I would have felt it too late to go. That would have been a pity. I’ve only managed to get out three times this week. I do have problems getting up sometimes. But I always enjoy them when I do, even if it rains during the time out.
What I am not seeing much of, whilst out, is shipping. I’m catching many fewer Brittany ferries than was normally the case. Occasional sights of the bunkering ships the Janey W and Whitchampion still come in to the harbour, but I don’t see them very often at all now.
These two ships though, the Mary Mouse 2, which is always there there. It used to be an active lightship (which probably stating the obvious, given the giant light on top) and whilst I don’t know how it is doing now, it is a very nice restaurant, serving some very food.
Now, the other ship, the EGS Pioneer is also a bit interesting it’s a survey vessel. It has some quite sophisticated equipment on board. I don’t know what it has been surveying. I’m sure it’s being useful also.
