I was down at our holiday cottage yesterday, helping my wife with a changeover. The house looks over the tidal estuary of the River Nith. Hearing an approaching roaring noise, I grabbed my phone and got this shot of the tidal bore coming up the river. It’s interesting to see the incoming tide flowing over the top of the outgoing river current.

Lovely morning on what is set to be the hottest day of the year for us. The gorgeous North Antrim Coast, one before sunrise and one after.

I took this one today of Swaffham wind turbine. There’s a viewing platform at the top about 220ft (67 metres) up. I had the opportunity to go up it a couple of years ago - there’s a spiral staircase inside consisting of 305 steps. Definitely the longest staircase I’ve ever been up. From the top you can see Ely cathedral which is about 25 miles away as the crow flies, which just shows how flat East Anglia is!
Sadly, it’s closed to the public now.

Space rocket from our local park!! Don’t think there’s a single astronaut in it but could be sea men
We were out on the water yesterday. Just as I was contemplating Full Speed Ahead, a sea plane decided to land ‘just in front’ of us. Never experienced that before.

Only closed if you’re driving an HGV. There’s a house falling down on London Road so a one-way is in place with a weight restriction on the road.
I see water, but no swimmer…
