I bought an ivy plant a week or so ago with the intention of drawing it. did a pencil one the other night and used coloured pencils, last night I drew it in ink and used the pearlescent watercolours.

Great sunset last night too.

This morning I walked down to the front, my ankle was sore but need to keep using it methinks! A grey morning and a grey bay!

As I walked beck to the crossing to cut back into the park I saw this bike sign. They are appearing now as Le Tour is fast approaching and we get it on the final day this year.

Still raining so a wet park picture!

Was in for a bit and thinking about tidying up a bit. Darren and Tina had gone out early to go to a SciFi convention at the Spa. They decided to go on the open top bus as parking would be a nightmare. They came in for lunch and Darren was going to go back again this afternoon. Tina had some work to do so gave me her day rider ticket. So I headed off again and caught the bus to the south bay. Oliver's Mount was shrouded in mist, so got off the bus at the start of the bay so I could take a picture!

Had a pensioners meal deal and walked along the bay catching the bus back from the far end. I Stopped the bus along by the large man statue as I had spotted a rainbow on the horizon, quite feint, but lovely. With the sun behind me I had no idea what I was taking, but this one came out reasonably well!

As I walked back along the front I passed the bike that is the finish line marker!

Sat and watched a Wallander with my feet up this afternoon and have The Voice final and Casualty to watch later.
