Poll . Do you sometimes wear pygamas on the boat ?

[Wansworth]

I haven’t noticed anyone suggesting a habit was the thing to wear in bed.

This is becoming kinky

Nothing Kinky about habits, at least not mine.

Has anyone noticed the remarkable similarity between the pyjamas poll result and the result of a certain referendum held in 2016?

Might there be a correlation?

Does that make me a leaver then?

No, or not now.

They used to be common garments worn on RORC China Sea races.

The races go from HK to either (alternate years) San Fernando or Manilla. The races were held at Easter and could start in weather demanding a full set of foul weather gear. As the yachts went south, on a roughly SE course, the weather improved and it would not be long you were sailing in light winds on blue seas and cloudless skies.

PJs were found to be ideal gear, all covering, baggy, lightweight - and if you chose wisely, cotton. They kept the sun at bay, all you further needed was a wide brimmed hat.

In northern France we were once berthed next to a blue ensign jobbie who appeared in a silk dressing gown with a cup and saucer.

Does not everyone have a silk dressing gown and/or what precisely is wrong with cups and saucers. Next you will complain we use champagne flutes.....
