MV Isle of Arran Passing the Old Shipyard

13.6C starting dry and quite bright. Showers late morning, then a dry spell, then heavy showers in the afternoon. Light W/WNW breeze.

It was another of those infrequent days when Apothecary7 was working the odd hours of 7am to 3.30pm. I took Maeve the Deerhound out for her normal early walk but before 6.30am. I brought her home then went for a walk out along Low Askomill to the old shipyard. Classical music on the theme of Seascapes on the iPod Mini. I wanted to be out at the shipyard before the ferry left at 7.35am so I could try to get some pictures.
It has become Ferry Friday but I expect it won't be on the first rainy Friday we have.

Late morning I went along the road to the local fish shop and got freshly made Salmon quiche.

After lunch Maeve the Deerhound and I went for a short walk. We went along to the and of the narrow little park past the ferry terminal and came back through town.
