Default {WR} Haytor 6/6/08 (friday afternoon cold beer)

20+ basking sharks at Sennen earlier in the week, I missed them.

Wow! I've only ever seen one basking shark, and that was on Gwenver Beach,
Sennen. A load of seagulls were harassing it, but it seems unperturbed and
gently swam north towards Cape Cornwall. Best time I had at Sennen was when
surfing and 4 bottlenosed dolphins joined us, the dolphins were huge and
they never got very close but to see them surfing for fun, as we were doing
in the waves was magical.

Sun's oot, rather nice in the garden. A lie down in the hammock with a cold
beer is called for.

Just doubled my rainwater storing capacity to 400 litres.

(12:45) 19.3C, RH 56%, DP 10.0C, 1018.7 hPa (R), Wind 10 mph NW.
