East Mersea BBQ

[MoodySabre]

Sorry I can't join you. I've got a buugered knee (bursitis) which I am trying to get better for sailing next week.

I've only done 600 miles this year so a trip to Mersea would have helped the count

Have a good evening.

Hi Paul its Meresa Stone @ East Mersea, the Pyefleet ( 1/2 a mile away) is a very quiet & safe anchorage with some moorings as well. I expect to be anchored there Saturday night.

Will try and be there, but can't promise......

Guilty as charged, your Honour. I even had some chilled beers on board in case I bumped into you. Sadly, these were consumed along with the wine that found its way onto the boat. The inevitable consequences ensued!
