High Spring Tide

Good Friday 29th March 2013

A blustery breezy day in anticipation of a busy weekend. The spring tides making boating a little bit more interesting. This photo was taken by a local lad, Luke Thompson. The Scillonian III alongside the end of the new quay at high tide this afternoon 5.30pm. The tide is that high she looks like she's on top of the Old Quay!

Porthcressa

Wednesday 27th March 2013

Porthcressa this morning with one of the new sheltered seating areas and garden.
Also, again this afternoon.

Snow?! No, Not Here! We've Got Sun!

Friday 22nd March 2013

Well, the rest of the country seems to be having strange weather, floods and snow! Not here, we've got sunshine! ...OK, first thing was heavy rain, but that soon cleared by 9am to a glorious day.
I took a stomp around the Garrison this afternoon. I didn't have long to spare so a short walk is better than none when the weather is so good. No coat required again this afternoon.

Scilly Spring Flowers

Wednesday 20th March 2013

The weather really is stunning today. I took a long walk ...the longest walk I've taken for some time. My legs are not used to it!! I will need to get back into regular walks again I think!

There's plenty of Scilly spring flowers out, and unpicked in fields they are in bloom. The gorse is also bright with their yellow flowers.

Morning Sunshine!

Wednesday 20th March 2013

I had to pop out for a few bits at the chandlery this morning (I've a couple of screws loose that needed replacing!) the morning sunshine is beautiful here on Scilly! The chandlery is a great vantage point for a couple of photos

Walking Around Peninnis

Thursday 14th March 2013

It's been a while but now we're open fully, I can get out a little between split shifts to enjoy the beautiful walks and Scilly views. I really enjoyed walking around Peninnis and down into Old Town in the warm sunshine; I didn't take a coat. Amazing to think we'd had snow flurries 2 days previously!

St Mary's Harbour

Wednesday 13th March 2013

The snow flurries have gone and the weather feels a lot warmer in comparison to the last couple of days.
The sun is out and the view across St Mary's harbour and the sands of Town Beach is lovely this morning.

We Are Now Open For 2013

We have now opened fully for the 2013 season, as of Monday 11th March.

The weather was a little nippy on Monday & Tuesday, with snow flurries! This is very rare for Scilly!! It didn't really settle though.
