Minerva

I've been a bit nautical in my blips lately, but I guess living on such a small outcrop surrounded by so much sea it'snot surprising. This is the Minerva, FR 147, heading round the north of Yell. It was a breezy old day, luckily I could take this from the comfort of my lovely daughter's dining room window. She really does have views to die for. I really wanted to blip a picture of the Marram grass, it was absolutely beautiful, blowing in the wind like the pelt of an animal, but I just couldn't get anything I was pleased with.

Spent the day recovering from the party and the subsequent drams in the galley shed. The boys dresses are coming on a treat, three weeks to go. Now there is word that they may want me to take their official pictures for the programme too. That's a bit of a worry.
