Same here. :cuppa:
 
It's Fasching (Carnival) locally, so this was the view when I arrived at work today:

Curiously this doesn't happen in my home village, the reason being that this town was part of Austria (don't ask me, I just live here) and is therefore Catholic, whereas my village was protestant, so they have different festivals.

What a contrast. I did not need to switch on the lights when I got up at my usual time of about 0720 and the sun was shining through my front windows.
Sadly it shows that they badly need cleaning outside after the gales. Not worth doing yet as we are due more bad weather tomorrow but next week is forecast to be not too bad. The forecasts change very quickly tho' so just hope for the best. I got caught out this past week by making ferry bookings based on forecasts.
Better go and panic buy fuel for the car as I have a 42 mile round trip next week for a 15 minute appointment with a consultant.Not sure why as there is usually a scan of my aortic stenosis before this appointment but the usual guy has retired and this is somebody with a name I would not even attempt to pronounce. Probably a locum anyway.
 
They sit in the harbour underwater and no boat traffic is allowed in.

Doesn't that rather spoil the whole "stealth" aspect? I can't see the harbours in say, Shanghai or Vladivostok agreeing to this.
