Now that\'s the attitude I like in a Yacht Club
Just spent two weeks cruising the CIs and French coast obtaining my Comp Crew and Dazed Kipper. Came out of St Helier and picked up a mooring at Les Ecrehou (stunningly beautiful place), then headed off in the evening to Cartaret. Fog and night descended (thank God for GPS and Radar) and we rolled into the marina at about midnight local time. Legged it for the Barneville-Cartaret Yacht Club bar where Bernadette, the proprietor, was just about to close up.
B "Pardon messieurs, we are closing)
Us "Oh no, we'll die if we don't get a drink"
B (with only a slight pause) "Well, I'm not a doctor so you'd better come in and have a pint"
She kept the bar open for another hour and a half until we could drink no more.
