Who was there yesterday?

I just happened to be in Glasgow overnight so I made a detour down to Irvine before heading back up. I could have spent all day poking around the stands. The missus was less enthusistic, I suppose its like her dragging me round the shoe shops.

Bought loads of stuff, some of which I needed. Some just 'cos it was too cheap to miss, like two 20m shore lines for a tenner the pair. Forgot some important stuff, like a short length of heavy nylon for a backup mooring strop. SWMBO bought a gadget for syphoning - it was worth the price just to hear the guy's sales pitch.

Finally ran out of cash, since herself had spent some of the "float" in Glasgow the day before.

I went...also bought one of the pump/syphoning gadgets.Tried it out today on water tank..it works very well,as you say,the guy's sales pitch was excellent. Had to refrain from buying a lot of useful stuff as we have to carry it on plane to boat,but will be back next year.
