LIFE ABOARD We are so looking forward to the force 11 storm
that’s due. after all, there are not many people privileged to experience zero gravity, unless aboard a space station. (Oh, just bring it on; it’s always good to test your mettle!). my only fear is that she, weighing some 35 tons, will be blown off the trot mooring, taking several large vessels with us and we’ll be obliged to explain ourselves to the harbour master. I dare say I’ll be able to come up with some excuse or another. But “a seal bit through the riser” might not cut the mustard – about as pathetic as “the dog ate my homework”. Did you make any new year resolutions? I did. no
swearing and more patience. Then hub dropped and broke my best Waterford crystal glass, so that was them over with in half an hour. hub has a spotted dick (no, not what you may be excused for thinking). It’s his favourite pudding - I made it for him and am thus currently basking in the sunshine of his approval. This cannot last, sadly, as I have found and polished off the remains of his carefully hoarded but ill hidden cognac. I have often felt that my being of choleric humour was
a grave fault but now feel it is the only realistic way to survive life aboard in winter. Give it as good as you get. so, on that note, Goodnight, sleep tight, don’t let the weevils bite and don’t let the gribbles nibble!
