Just had a great few days at the beginning of February. A couple of circumnavigations of Luing, twice to Puilladobhrain, Loch Melfort, Kimelford and Melfort Pier. Winds were 14 kts E or ENE gusting 30 to 45 kts at times, weather was mostly fair but cold and some rain at times. Also had a night sail ...

Indeed, but for me it was the tension when asked to reverse into the berth, starboard side too. For those who don't know, Sruth struggles going backwards, has an upswept bow that blows down wind very easily and has a massive kick to port in reverse. Reversing into the berth meant the wind was blowin...

Indeed, and well deserved, tough conditions and an awkward boat to handle were all managed well. Congratulations.

After a pause, he lifts the third and downs it. Straightaway, he necks the fifth. He says to the bar...

A Glaswegian family give birth to identical twins but they're so poor they can't afford to keep them. They put them up for adoption. The first goes to Madrid and his new parents call him Juan. The second goes to Cairo and his new parents call him Amal. A few years later, the Glaswegian family get a ...

Having run my fan heater at full chart for a while, the other day I noticed smoke coming from the consumer unit (shore power). The consumer unit came with the boat when I bought it 15 years ago, and was probably quite a bit older than that. It has an RCCB (Residual Current Circuit Breaker), the main...

Went up to the boat last Thursday and found that the Rest and Be Thankful had returned to a dual lane road, with the traffic lights gone. A joy to drive again with no delays. Before Christmas it was still the one lane traffic light system. Today, it was gloriously wet, a thaw has set in and the burn...

Why do gay men love the bow man?
