I don\'t care what you think ... I had a marvelous time and I\'m happy
This weekend - had friends round ... Weather was good ... so it was a jaunt on the river ....
Saturday with girls as well - who insist on sitting on foredeck to enjoy the view etc. A wine or two and happy !
Prevents me from putting up the rags though ! So it's a motor job.
Sunday - it's boy's day !! Girls decide to stay home ... so Edgar and I up rags ... and cast off .....
I don't care how bad my sails are ... how baggy they now are ... (they are not original and need recutting to remove the yards of slack in them !!) ... but we had a whale of a time out there ... arrived back at home base relaxed, fresh and happy.
And to crown it all - Girls had bought MORE beer and also got BBQ organised ............. now that is what I call a day out on the water ....
You cast off ... switch off ..... no time-table, no cares .... just sheer utter bliss ......
So moan about dirty boat, moan about baggy sails, moan about whatever you like - WE don't care - WE enjoyed ourselves ... WE were on a river with only 2 other boats all weekend ...
FANTASTIC !! /forums/images/graemlins/smirk.gif /forums/images/graemlins/smirk.gif /forums/images/graemlins/smirk.gif /forums/images/graemlins/smirk.gif /forums/images/graemlins/smirk.gif
