HMC Vigilant

7.3C very wet overnight. Cloudy start with rain clearing to dry bright afternoon. SW/WSW wind to 24 mph with gusts to 33 mph.

Maeve the Deerhound slept though until 7am.

Maeve and I went for a walk after lunch. Podcast of BBC Radio 4's Desert Island Discs (Prof. Brian Cox) then Stevie Nicks (In Your Dreams) on the Clip. We went round to the harbour, had a wander round the old quay, then went along past the ferry terminal to the park. Just a few fishing boats at the old quay today and at the outer part of the quay HMC Vigilant, a Border Agency (customs) cutter. At the end of the park we turned and came back along the street side then came home through town past the town hall and the bookshop (open).

First weekend of 6 nations rugby. Scotland have just beaten Ireland. Next up is England vs France.
