Dhobi Day...
Tradition says Fri is fish day but for me it was shower day and as water is a precious commodity on Guernsey - I thought I'd do my dhobi in the shower!? Afterwards some coffee & pastries set the crew up for the rigours of a tough passage to Jersey - 30 miles, calm sea, blu sky, sun, diesel in the tank(!) For once (or maybe at last...) the day went without drama! We rocked at St Helier and rafted up to some other yachts in the race. After some tidying and a beer, we set off for a more beer (this is a holiday!?) eventually we found a nice bar and we sat outside under a shady tree - such a pleasant spot, a pigeon thought it would be great place to see who it could hit... Now, it's supposed to be lucky if a bird craps on you, so tomorrow I'm off to buy a lottery ticket but tonight, i'm off to the gents for some more dhobi?!? :-)
