We walked in to town today. We popped in to the new cultural centre had a quick look around which was interesting, and did make me wonder if they change parts of the display every few days? The cafe is quite pleasant.
The British Heart Foundation has quite a good book section. I like to take a look occasionally. They had a book about Samual Pepys, not his diary, more a biography. If it is still there next time I go in, I may get it.
Even though there was a chilled breeze blowing (actually, it was very cold) but it was very pleasant to take a stroll to the end of the pier wall. The small cargo ship, the Musketeer was sailing out of the harbour. Nice to see.
We watched a cormorant it was diving for fish. I was surprised at how far it travelled under water and how long it stayed under. I don’t know if it was pleased with itself, or frustrated it didn’t come up with anything in its beak – hopefully it catches and eats underwater.
There was a seagull on top of a lamp post at the end of the pier. It seems we had somehow upset it. It seemed to be really quite angry.
