He's a gem isn't he ? Mind you if you took up reading Cunliffe after you'd given up sailing, I dare say you'd be right back into it.

Don't forget Des Sleightholme (sp?).

Better keep the boat put the books onboard and move the boat to somewhere your happy to be.

Life ashores good for a few weeks but soon pales on your boat you can move your home for summer or winter or just for a change!Bricks and morter are very fixed!!!!

I know people that are in their 80s and still sailing and fit!And very happy!I also knew some that were that age and more fit and healthy but died within 2 years of going ashore
