We were able to get a good day on the water today despite a rather dubious weather forecast. An easy trip down to Inveraray saw Sparkle, Kermit and Kairos crews enjoying coffee and cake. Ronnie and Karen then headed back to the campsite as they are having a couple of days elsewhere as another few days rain/winds is forecast. Sparkle and Kairos headed on down towards the brewery with a view to checking out Fyne Fest. We landed at the usual spot but decided to try the garden centre cafe for lunch as Fyne Fest was very busy...

Chat time at “oyster catcher sand piper bar and restaurant bay”
Brexit did not come up for discussion, but it looks as if it did, by the general demeanor of the throng.

Weather today is gross where heavy drizzle mixed with heavier rain) is the order.
Enclosed is an iphone record of what was forecast for the last 7 days. They are rubbish, and only included for mild disdain.
Weve had super days, good days, OK days and “tolerable days”
Today is crummy, but tomorrow is forecast to be OK but that was last night!


Mr Taylor has just called across (about 10feet) and informed me (with a somewhat dampened disposition) that the forecast for tomorrow (guess) has been down graded to ordinary (at best) as Mr Sun has been demoted back into the cupboard.
Its almost certain the weather will do just what it fancies, so building up for “a fat boys brunch.

Eating frozen confectionary can have serious cocequences. A furtive if somewhat queezie glance thro the netting by your personally adds that unknown input. Moderate danger can be percieved by even the most casual observer that the incoming tide had almost swamped, nay consumed our poor geographical mooring location.

These uploads are care off pairing my ipad with my iphone 3G.
Im SO up with the lads
Or is it down with the boys?
Such a worry.
Great night at Tom n Georgie.
No animals were damaged this night but plenty of wine bottles met their doom 🙄
