Scarborough, Monday 5th June 2017

Had a big sleep, stayed in bed late and was then a bit rushed. Checked in with port authority and then met up with mates number four; Hoorah:-), Gary n Deanna are holidaying in Scarborough when i'm here.Had a chinwag and climbed the castle Hill. Had a wine buying retail opportunity and have sunk a bottle of elderberry (11%),started the bottle of cherry(11%) and have ginger to go. The weather was damp and I prospected a B&B then it cleared up and i got miserly.

The forecast prospects are looking 'stormy weather boys' for the next week! With a possible window bright and early Thursday morning with a building southerly wind.

Scarborough is grand, though i was disappointed when i went out at 7pm to get chips & all was shut :-)

I'm pleased i didn't B&B it, tarptent is finessed to minimise water intake, i've got springs out to secure the mooring. With the wind occasionally whistling through local rigging and the rain pattering on tarptent i feel as prepared as poss for the oncoming gale.

  4. Glad your doing so well, storm winds from Derbs Peak District hitting our little bungalow on a hill so can't imagine how hard it is for you by the sea! Sending a little more encouragement xx
