Quick collage of a few images of yesterday's trip back to The Yard as part of my week off this week. Trying to use up some more holiday as we're not allowed to carry over anymore than the usual 5 days, or in my case the prorate equivalent seeing as how I'm now part-time. So looks like I have picked a pretty good week weather wise, although the 29C today is a tad too warm for me hence the day post-processing yesterday's photos.
Tedster got a chance to try out the play area just outside the entrance whilst we waited for our booked time slot to come around, always hard to judge exactly what time we're likely to arrive given we're at the mercy of public transport, so I tend to err on the side of caution! Anyways we had a good day, I took the M5 around the Tattoo Exhibition one last time, which was better this time due to it being mostly empty apart for us and a member of staff. Wandered around the site from end to end using the M5 in Monochrome mode this time, apart from the gardens - plants in black 'n' white is a tad pointless ;-) Left around quarter past four and was back indoors just after 5pm, so a nice long day out of the house. Which is a novelty these past 5 months or so. Took some record shots of some of the Covid-19 signage for that day when this is all just a dim and distant nightmare ;-) To be fair the Dockyard have done really well, lots of hand sanitiser around the place - not that some people use it, face coverings to be worn indoors and some arrow signs where necessary to keep the flow going. HMS Ocelot is the only thing not open right now but there is a digital tour which you can follow using the QR codes which you can scan on your mobile devices. Most of what I enjoy seeing is outside anyway so the mask wearing is less onerous. It's been good to bag a few recent visits to our favourite place given it would have been almost a monthly event if not more often on my annual ticket.
