WYSIWYG

What You See Is What You Get. This is a journal blog, an explore-blog, a bit of this and that blog. Sharing where the mood takes me. Perhaps it will take you too.

Menoodling; Lingerment

I spent four nights parked at Greenock. It's a fabulous spot, out on the quayside. During the day, lots of fishermen, hoping to catch Cod, Pollock, Mackeral, Eel, Balan Wrasse, Scorpionfish... Not that any of them caught any of these things during my stay there. 

"Too early in the season yet, but ye never ken."

Fair enough. The eternal fisherman's adage.

At night, a few folks driving up to eat their take-out meals. Some of them using the bins. Others leaving me work to do the next morning. My teeth are starting to wear out from the gnashing and grinding. What's so f****** hard about opening your car door and taking five steps to the big bin right there???!!! 

Deep breaths. Calm. Forgive the outburst.

Sit and watch the water, the birds, the boats, the clouds, the hills...

    Hi Yam - so pleased you're so content with a-wandering in the Grey - looks peaceful, yet full of life. I get really cross seeing how much rubbish is just left in the streets - so emphasise with you ... and well done on helping out - I wonder if the powers that be (refuse) realise that for a few days there's less for them to do ... take care - cheers Hilary

    Litter is a huge problem the world over. Too bad that you have to pick up after others - and so many don’t.

    Beautiful view of the ducks and the boat. I love water views!
    It is sad people can not throw out their trash in the appropriate place.
    Take care, have a great day!

    great spot for a recharge of your peace, the first one, blue water and birds calling, is the personification of peace and for you that boat recharging your love of boats.. on my shopping trip this past Saturday, a person left half a cigarettes on the sidewalk, only 2 small steps from the sign says drop cigarettes here please and a big contain with a big hole.

    Sorry to hear about the lazy trash dumpers, but your videos were very serene with the calm waters. We enjoyed watching the ducks and boat floating by.

    YAMaunty I saw this with you 87 times "What's so f****** hard about opening your car door and taking five steps to the big bin right there???!!! " We used to see lots of trash on the trails...which have trash cans EVERYWHERE. Did they use them NOPE!!!
    I loved your calming videos and the ship.
