Tea break for the workers.....

...... clearing the river.
This is the annual cutting back of the plant growth along the banks of the River Mun.



As you can see the stream gets overgrown though the spring and early summer which reduces the flow.
This year the rainfall has not been high so the rate of flow has not been important, but it may all change.





An odd-looking boat was around yesterday sailing up and down just off the beach.
Was it doing a survey of the sea bottom or waiting for the body-boarders to float out to them?
All very odd.
The same vessel is still around this morning.

I think it's called a fishing smack. That's a drug smugglers boat with some fish on it, like tins of tuna. OAA X

Deffo a spy ship. It looks like the one in the Bond film that got blown up about 5 minutes in.

Without wikiing, I reckon it was the For Your Eyes Only im thinking of.
