Who\'s watching you?

Awoke to a beautiful morning on the Stour.
Midweek and no other yachts or habitation in sight.
Didn't seem necessary to put my keks on for a wee over the side.
Made coffee and sat on deck to drink it while getting some all over sun.
A couple of hours later I noticed a row of birdwatchers hides among the trees on shore. How many binoculars were pointed my way?
SWMBO said magnifiers more appropriate.

Re: Who\'s watching you?

8 odd years ago, I was leading a boat dive on the Breda off Oban. We had taken a couple of fairly inexperienced divers with us and before leaving shore I gave my usual toilet lecture i.e. once we leave there isn't one, so go three times. Once cos you need to, second time cos there's always a bit left and third time, to convince your brain you really don't need to go again. Trust me - it works. One of the female divers didn't listen and needed the loo inbetween dives. We could have made an island, but it wasn't ideal, so it was agreed she would hang over the side of the rib (things are sooooooo much easier for guys!). The blokes on board duly turned away, I hung on to the girls hands and she perched over the edge, backside to the fresh air. I had to concentrate really hard to keep a straight face as I saw a tourist boat with at least 10 cameras / videoes pointing our way as it came round the headland, while at the same time reassuring the girl involved that all was well /forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif

Yup - well apart from the difficulties cause by vital organs freezing and dropping off - we were diving off Oban in May. Chilly to say the least!
