Scruffy Died

Well for all those fans of Scruffy, unfortunately he died back in February.  He was breathing deeply one day and turned out he had a tumor in his lungs so had to have him put down.  Very sad day indeed as he was my mate. Here is a nice picture to remember him by…

BP's British Cormorant

Went on BP’s British Cormorant the other week down at Coryton it was excellent.   The Captain was very nice and let us look all over the ship. Details are here It has a 1km turning circle, massive.  It was only 2/3rds loaded that is about 700,000 barrels of oil at todays prices thats about 44 million dollars worth of oil.

More of Scruffy – couldnt resist

Took this really nice picture of Scruffy today while at lunch. He looks so contented now its the summer, out in the garden. And him teasing ‘Mia the doggy’ and then having a scratch on the tree.  

The British Summer is here

Today is May the 27th and I think the summer has finally arrived here as its about 28 degrees outside, poor Scruffy was seeking some shelter under the table and chairs in the garden it was so hot.

Talking of Snow !!

My mate Rick Marden sent me some pictures of the snow at his place, all the snow here has gone but clearly parts of the UK are still suffering.
