For anyone watching the Scottish Open (golf), this one should appear on Sky Sport 1 any moment.

Although even though it's bright sunshine and 24c here, for some reason they've suspended play for the golf!!!

Wonderful!!! One of the many tall ships heading up the west coast of Scotland at this time, heading for various ports en-route to Shetland. Should be a fine collection of these great ships at Ullapool today and tomorrow.

Hello

This tug passes by our garden nearly every day at the moment. It is here with the jack up barge Excalibur.
