Looking down from the cliffs i spotted this bloke in the sea...No idea what he was doing but he put on quite a show.
Чего боится эта жаба, сидящая на трубе? Чего боятся эти бункерные воры больше всего? Вы сами отлично знаете. Выхода людей на улицы. (…) Вот этот самый вороватый бункерный дед сидит и трясётся от страха. Они же боятся! Ровно поэтому делают всё так срочно, тайно, секретно, так торопятся. Они боятся — и боятся они вас. Боятся тех людей, которые могут перестать молчать, осознать свою силу и понять: Ну кто может им противостоять? Эти люди задают вопрос: «Почему вся Россия внезапно подчиняется какому-то Путину, Сечину, эти Ротенбергам, сборищу какого-то жулья чудовищного?» Как только мы это осознаем, выйдем на улицы, всё это просто перестанет, растворится. Мы же каждый день просто теряем возможности, которые даёт нам настоящее, и каждый день теряем своё будущее. 20 лет уже подряд. 20 лет подряд мы становимся беднее, наша страна деградирует, наше образование всё хуже, наше здравоохранение всё более чбого.
Это никто не остановит, кроме нас самих. Поэтому я вас призываю: не молчите! Сопротивляйтесь! Выходите на улицы! Никто, кроме нас самих, нас не защитит. А нас так много, что если мы захотим чего-то добиться, мы этого добьёмся.»

“Do not keep silent”
This is an excerpt of a speech that Aleksey Navalny gave in a Moscow court during his show trial in 2021 before being sentenced to camp imprisonment. I haven’t found an official translation into English, so I’m giving it a try myself… everything this English version lacks in style, clarity and possibly grammar is only due to my limited capabilities.
“What does this toad sitting on a pipeline fear the most? What do these thieves in their bunkers fear the most? You know it perfectly well. They fear people taking to the streets. (…) This thievish old man is sitting in his bunker and is shivering with fear. They are afraid! That’s the only reason that everything happening is so rushed, so secretive, hurried and hushed. They are afraid, and they are afraid of you. They are afraid of people who no longer are willing to silently endure, of people who recognize their power and realize that they are unstoppable. People who wonder: “Why is all of Russia supposed to bow down to a Putin, a Sechin, some Rotenbergs, to this bunch of monstrous crooks?” It will all stop as soon as we realize this and take to the streets; it will vanish into thin air. Every day we keep losing possibilities that we still have today; every day we lose a bit of future. It has been like that for twenty years. For twenty years we have been getting poorer and poorer, our country has been degenerating. Our education has been worsening, our health system is getting more run-down by the day.
No one but we ourselves can stop this. This is why I appeal to you: Do not keep silent! Make a stand! Take to the streets! Nobody but we can protect ourselves. And we are so many; if we really want to achieve something, we can do it.”

The boat is, I think, a Cornish Crabbers Shrimper 19.
Some 20kms distant is the Lincs offshore windfarm.
We went to a little cute city on the island Karmøy called Skudenes, there is a nice harbor here and on tip of the southend there is this lighthouse
** I think this is my first photo of a kite on a beach with an eleventh century Norman castle . Taken at Scarborough North Yorkshire . ( The Castle is up on top of the cliffs )
THANKS FOR YOUR VISIT TO MY STREAM.
I WOULD BE VERY GRATEFUL IF YOU COULD NOT FAVE A PHOTO
WITHOUT ALSO LEAVING A COMMENT
