Info

Two – month - old fossilised sausages: not appetising. Visited Tesco for supplies and saw some Vestas wind turbine bits being delivered. 12.30 After visiting Tesco, left Campbelltown for Gigha. I was trying to fit things into the fridge, juggling Stuff Out, Stuff In and the fridge lid when I realised my elbow had gone through the two remaining eggs. Oh for f*** sake! The Eggs Of Doom! Chucked them over the side for a Float Test. They didn’t.
Motored all the way to Gigha in the complete absence of any wind (but lovely and sunny) with a beef casserole bubbling away for several hours. New experience for me as the only two previous times I’d been round the Mull (both motoring) we’d gone via Sanda and Rathlin. (Possibly the smelliest pub bogs in the world.) 18.00 Arrived at Ardminish Gigha, and had a drink or two to settle our nerves then scoffed the casserole. Nice but nowhere nearly as good as Robin’s Boogaloo Stew. Al was keen to visit the pub but Mike and I couldn’t be bothered pumping up the dinghy so we passed the time blethering and passing comments on the other yachts in Ardminish Bay. The boats some people sail…Oy Vey! Lovely sunset, though. The wind picked up and the temperature dropped quite a bit so we all dived into our bunks fairly early. I woke up several times during the night in danger of rolling out of my bunk; the boat was pointing west, into the wind but a big southerly swell was coming into the anchorage causing big ‘rolly- pollys’, whilst the rain was battering off the coach roof. 05.15 Sourced and sorted the many rattling bits of boat gear and had a cuppa to celebrate.
