That they do. While this lot were chilling, there were loads of them in the water too.

One nice thing about this time of the year is the calm evenings after an unseasonably warm day. You often get some cracking skies. Like this one, just across the road from Trev Towers the other day.

If you've ever wondered how offshore wind turbines were installed, well, wonder no more. On Saturday I was having a (socially distanced) walk with my father along the old Midland and Great Northern Joint Railway line just north of Caister when we spotted this. The support boat with the erector crane has long hydraulic legs and it does a "push up" on the seabed beside the turbine site. Although this one was installing blades I assume this is also how they put up the tower as well.

They had a VERY calm North Sea to get this done on Saturday!

A very similar vessel (maybe even the same one) would dock in Larne Harbour from time to time, we usually went up onto the roof of the power station for better pics of the interesting boats.

One I thought I posted a couple of days ago. Early morning dog walks are atmospheric this time of year.

Funny you should post that, I saw a full on replica of the A -Team can in Felixstowe yesterday.

My pic of the day is this, calm before the storm. Not long afterwards the heavens opened and the worst rain I have seen in a long time drenched everything and flooded parts of the A14. Just after we passed the end of the Orwell bridge they closed it for two hours causing massive tailbacks and delays in Ipswich.
