Piracy

We made it back in time for the E Pontoon Pirate Party yesterday, which this time last week was beginning to look unlikely! 

Back on the ditch

This feels oh so small now!

Hot hot hot!

Its hot hot hot today here in West Stockwith. Thankfully we have nothing to do today other than chill out and relax.

We rinsed Naughty-Cal off this morning to get rid of some salt water and leave her looking her usual shiny self. Glad we did that before the heat arrived!

Back in the River!

It seems very strange being back in the confines of the river. Feels very small!

The Deep

Today it's a tourist day in Hull. It's rude not too visit the Deep whilst here and a host of other attractions, including the Maritime Museum.
