Low Cloud

20.7C with cloud and sunny spells. Moderate SE/SSE breeze increasing in the afternoon to 22 mph.

After lunch Fergus and I went for a walk out to the old shipyard. We only saw one little creel boat moving across the loch today. Near the yacht club a Sea Cadets yacht was moving about and some small kids were out in red sea kayaks.

On the Clip while walking:
