A funny old day

Waved Sam off, after first buying him breakfast at Inverness Bus Depot. Sam ended up having his sausage roll blagged off of him by a tramp ! Bloke said he wanted it to feed the seagulls and Sam fell for it. As our bus pulled out we saw a hungry looking seagull staring at the tramp eating it ! I managed to catch the right bus back from the airport to theTown centre but got lost with the walking bit. Sam was actually home, laying on the sofa with the remote, before Id found the boat. On my route I took this stunning photo of the Inverness skyline. Sorry, Inverness, but difficult to big you up when I feel a bit down. Might have been different if the sun shone for more than 30 seconds. 

Spent afternoon having a good tidy up then serviced my engine. It still might blow itself to smitherines when I need it most but, mentally, the task has perked me up. Bought a chart for the next bit and started creating a 'plan'. Lots to consider on the next leg. Biggest thing is that I have to go 50 odd miies to find a suitable harbour. This is only a problem if a storm turns up.  My intention is to try and blast off on Monday, once these gales subside. Really windy up here. 

I am sure that anyone reading this will be aware that the mighty Pompey demolished their opponents, 3 - 0 today. I heard it on the radio while I had the floor up, sorting out the engine. 

A boring finish but, to anyone who's reading this, here's some luck ! A rainbow I wish to share. I've just had some, already, cos straight after taking this I found free wi fi onboard the boat and am now going to watch Match of The Day with 'a wee dram'. Night.
