A round of parties

This sailing lark is becoming far too sociable.

Having been invited onto a boat for a drink you then feel, rightly, obliged in return to invite them back onto yours. This of course is multiplied by the factor of how many boats are originally involved.

This situation gave rise to the most people we have ever squeezed into Camira’s cockpit, I think. Though there were some close calls back on the west coast of Scotland.

So, the story so far…. On the Tuesday night we were invited on Jill & Steve’s boat, next to us. They had invited the Swedes Haakan & Eva, and their own pals Mike & Claire. On Wednesday the same number on Sally the Swedish boat. We added to the mix on Thursday by adding in our German pals Wolfgang & Renate on Camira

With only a day’s respite we ended going out on the Saturday ashore for sundowners which we managed to keep to that. We didn’t go on for dinner.
