Holiday memories

Just got sent the link to some photos from my recent sailing trip. I know some of you guys would like to see them so here you go

For the more eagle-eyed among you I appear in two of the pictures

Very nice did you go to the top of the mast ??
greenfairy

I got 2/3rds of the way up - was a bit scary mind!

Next time I'm making it all the way up though

Hopefully if I can save up enough I want to do a trans-Atlantic trip like that one next winter

We did have a small feline visitor come aboard when we were tied up at Soller but he wasn't welcome for very long...

Any pussy would be welcome on a ship.

Don't believe I fell for that one.....


Oh fiddlesticks....

Hey GF!

Greeeaaat piccies, you must have had a fantastic time.

Meet any pirates?

Just wondered...
greenfairy

I did meet a pirate actually! Well sort of The less said about that at the moment the better
Hornblower

Oh sorry GF - didn't mean to raise old spectres.

Nuff said.

Did you take the photos? (Well, not the ones you're in of course.)
greenfairy

No, the photos I took are here - http://s13.photobucket.com/albums/a282/ElsG/SSN256/ with the password being "readonly"

Basically I didn't take any til the penultimate day and then got a bit carried away

As for spectres, not really. Met a guy, it turned out a bit differently than I'd hoped. As much my fault as his but a shame as I could use someone to hug of late what with life being a bit shitty

You carried away??

Never!
Hornblower

GF - you look lovely and you're very trusting with your photos!

I like the look of some of your mates too.

Ahhh, if only I were (a lot) younger and didn't have a penchant for being a serial husband...

Thanks for letting me, and others browse.

See ya soon - off to make the cocoa. (Code)

Trusting? Just stupid mate! Nah, there's enough pics of me floating round the interweb that I don't really worry any more. Although I wish the one of me jammed in a kids toy helicopter at 4am at Belfast Airport wasn't online...or the yellow towel one...but that's a whole other story

Glad you enjoyed the pics though, and here's hoping I get to do another trip on Stavvie in the future - if only to get a photo of me shitting myself right at the top of the mast
