Plans, mice, men....you get the drift....

No work on the propeller today.

Instead, a leisurely chug into Cambridge. Not a bad day for it, and midweek, hardly any other boats about. We could have waited until the weekend to do this pump-out trip, but as I'm working back at the vineyard, Jackie would have had to deal with a load of river traffic, the possibility of making her way between rowing race divisions and generally managing The Mighty Pippin's 26 tons all on her own.

She's well capable of it, by the way, but this boating life is not supposed to be one of stress, so we came in today.

Some boating chums are coming to supper tonight. I'd better get started on the Spag.Bol!
