10.2C with sunny sunshine all day long. Few clouds, Moderate breeze.

Maeve the Deerhound and I went through to Arbroath about 9am and had a wander round the harbour. The lock gate/bridge to the inner harbour was closed so we could walk round in a loop with a detour to see if there was a boat on the boatyard slipway. The tide was so far out that the few boats in the outer harbour were all aground and the harbour bottom could be seen above water in some places. The recent dredging was evident in the visible scoop marks on the harbour bottom. I have never seen the water so low.

After lunch Maeve and I went out for a walk. We went up to the church, down the bridle path to the shore road then back home in a loop using the main road . Maybe 3 miles.
