Double figures

I got 11 degrees in the pool (the tide was coming in but hadn't cooled it down) and 10 degrees in the sea with my state-of-the-art German instrument .

I notice that 4 years ago we hit double figures 3 days later.  That's climate change for you.

lobster fishing

High tech lobster fishing. Come back the man with the dog on the boat.

gelatinous planktonic animals

What I thought was pollution turned out to be very small jellyfish (cnidaria) and comb jellies (cnetophora),
 the latter giving a flashing coloured light display.
