Detail

17.2C sunny spells and plenty of cloud. Light SE/S/W/WSW breeze.
Amber wind warning for tomorrow daytime ... oh joy!

The CalMac ferry Hebridean Isles was at the new quay overnight.
There is some demolition work going on beside the Springbank Distillery. Old walls being taken down. Will something new be built is the question.

After lunch Fergus and I went for a walk out to the old shipyard and had a wander about. When we got there there were some small patches of blue sky allowing good low angle light to illuminate Davaar island. I also liked a detail from the wall art (graffiti?).

On the Clip while walking:
An episode of BBC radio 3's The Verb podcast with Ian McMillan (poet, author, playwright, and broadcaster).
The Verb at the Proms
Ian McMillan was joined by Michael Palin on the language of 19th century Naval officers (drunk and sober), ‘Rule Britannia’, and a remarkable ship called ‘Erebus’. He was also joined by beatboxer Jason Singh who uses his voice to create an astonishing maritime soundscape, by Oscar-winning composer Anne Dudley who celebrates the yearning of First World War songs, and Mojdeh Stoakley who beachcombs the language of this 'Proms Verb' to create an instant poem.
