Bottom Postponed

The weather put a hold on bottom cleaning today.  That pleasure is rearranged for Friday, too much wind.  So just an afternoon visit to wonder if I should be doing something.  A this neck of the woods being what it is a pair of hitchhikers were hanging around the marina seeking passage to the Canaries.  They incorrectly identified me as a wise old salt from which sage advice could be gleened...So had quite a long chat with a very nice girl from Germany (no really) and a nice chap from Sweden.  They were pennyless vagrants living on fresh air and optimism.  Any road after a long chat with me they where just pennyless vagrants, so that's my good deed for the day (well it's not my only good deed but the other is a whole other story...).

So am now at loose end (see that, I bet that's a nautical expression) and will be left to polish my fenders and read scary stories of how much yachting costs.
