Cloud (UFO?) over Totana tonight.

 

[Beakster]

In search of warmer weather we've headed to El Palomar, just south of Valencia. 10 Euros per night inc water, toilets, spotless showers and even use of the washing machine. Electricity is 3 euros extra, there is a cheaper 'car park' with less facilities. Very friendly owner, we'll be happy here for a few days.

Good cloud spotting. It looks like a lenticular cloud, is there a mountain below/near it?

Yes there is. We've seen odd shaped clouds there before but never like this one.

Went for a walk on Dartmoor this afternoon. This shot is looking south west over Plymouth Sound with Rame Head sticking out into the sea. The diggings in the foreground are the China Clay quarries.

Can't be unidentified if you have already identified it as a cloud.

Lenticular clouds form when a mountain pushes the air stream upwards into the colder, higher atmosphere. The water condenses out, forming the cloud, then the air sinks down after the mountain and warms up so the condensation stops. The odd thing is the cloud stands still while the air is passing through it. There are different varieties, some forming at low levels, others at high altitude.

4 parakeets outside the bedroom window , 3 can been seen but where is the 4th one? They're nesting in the tree so lots of noise from them at times.

 

[movan]

Totally fed up ... hadn't even reversed onto pitch and ..... had to be towed ....

The young man, bless him, refused any money ... being old and alone has it's advantages.

I was born in Bridport / West Bay 70 years ago today. It is lovely but a shame about all the "grockles" .

We want to retire to Bridport / West Bay

I think @Brakers is camping in Cheddar Gorge .. you might bump into him having a coffee ... and you can show him around the teddy bear shop.

Not cheap to go round but well worth it and love the tape so you can go at your own speed.

Thank goodness you reversed in or your towing eye would have been the wrong way round. Have you got some of Minxys bread tray thingies?

I'm very fond of Bridport and surrounding area, it's a bustling town with lots of independant shops & good market .... my brother and wife have a place in "Brid" so we get to visit occasionally.
