Pete's office...

For the last few months Pete has worked part-time on the Salcombe fuel barge operated by Devon Marine Fuels. Today was a working day and it started off calm and misty on the water. Over the first few hours the mist lifted to reveal a sunny, but breezy day. It has been really windy over the last few weeks and it’s about time the town had some settled sunny weather. It turned out to be a lovely sunny afternoon, but windy and cold on the water.

One of the attached pictures is of Salcombe town taken from Pete’s “office”, which is an improvement on his last office view. As a Programme/Project Manager working from home his view was of our back garden (or from the driving seat of his car on a motorway). Although he now has a 15 minute walking commute into town he doesn’t feel he can complain (despite the hills) followed by a short boat ride out to the barge.

The view is ever changing with the weather, tide and time of day and the diversity of craft either based in or stopping over in Salcombe passing by the fuel barge. The yacht club sailing events are always interesting to watch. You also get the odd windsurfer, hoby-cat, kayak or paddle board go by sometimes with the occasional dog perched on the front. As the summer progresses I am promised even more interesting sights) fingers crossed!
