Lots of people will recognise this bit of Gib?

 

[capnsensible]

Looks like thats it for me! 'Oops we ran into some problems'

Yes...... I used to patrol on a grey MFV along the back side of Gib in the early hours of the morning when everyone else was asleep........many moons ago. What it was to be a young sub. The RN Gibraltar Squadron with fast patrol boats was not in existence then.

This is my place with my boat on the left. I'm beginning to wonder whether this is the closest I will get to her this summer.

I got some piccies of Sabre and Scimitar in action doing various tasks. Quite active these days.

Re. MFV's. An old friend of mine, a recently retired Yachtmaster Examiner, was drafted to Gib many tides ago as a very young AB. During the border closure era. Hes got some great stories about trips down to Mdiq, the fishing port south of Ceuta. Regular runs to take service wives to the fresh produce market.

Yes. Not being flown by me but by Veritas Yachting who are a very helpful yacht charter company near our pontoon.

Just looking at the photo now, it struck that one could believe that the sea is behind the drone and we are looking up a river running inland when, in fact, the reverse is the case.

Only had a brief visit back there for Seafarers Medical since we left there nearly 3 and a half years ago. I still look at Gibraltar Chronicle

now and then. No mention of virus amongst the monkeys.

I think it is actually Kirkehamn.
Here is the same place from the top of that mountain:

Youv'e got it.

I think it was the nicest of lots of beautiful places we visited in Norway

I agree. The setting of that church is spectacular and even more so its small mariner's graveyard. Plate says "They remained out there":
