What a difference a day makes! Today has been misty and cloud covered all day and much cooler. I spent a short time tidying out in the back garden as it was messy with rain overfilled containers and a broken dish that fell down in the wind, plus plenty of leaves and general muck! Then I went off to town as I wanted to have a go at making some storage bags using embroidery hoops. I walked via the sea view and in one direction the castle wasn't visible.

Then out to sea, no horizon! 

I walked up towards the entrance to the castle, and still couldn't see it, and then walked to town via St Mary's.

When I got home I got the iron and sewing machine out and made a start on the storage bags. Towards the end of the instructions is said a very small seam allowance, but it hadn't said a general one. The result was that the bag didn't fit the ring!! So, I wrapped up and walked into town again and bought two slightly smaller hoops! This time they worked. I will make a bigger seam allowance next time to use the other hoops.
