What struck my fancy

Oops

The ferry boat was preparing to leave Stromness, chief port on Orkney (Scotland) bound for the mainland. One of the capstan's sprung a leak with greenish fluid spurting out on to the deck. I've no idea what the fluid was, perhaps hydraulic fluid. The crew managed to repair it and we left on time.
The wet paint sign was fortuitous but strangely apposite.
