At last, we are back on the water again.
After a longer than intended stay at home in August due to cellulitis in my right leg we are back on Half Time and now in Dartmouth for a Legend Owners Association (LOA) rally here this coming weekend.
My cellulitis was picked up (we think) from showering in some facilities somewhere while away on Half Time. As a precaution now against getting it again (once is plenty) I now take a pair of flip flops to wear while showering, hopefully it will work.
We came back onboard Half Time last Saturday and after a couple of nights in Torquay headed to the River Dart where we spent a night at Dittisham before heading up stream to spend a night on a mooring at Stoke Gabriel, a delightful village that boasts what is allegedly the oldest yew tree in the UK. A further night was spent at Dittisham where we met a friend on board his boat after which he was headed for Totnes while we went downstream to a marina in Kingswear as we needed access to mains power and to fill up our water tank. We have seen two boats arrive for our sailing rally and will head across tomorrow (Friday) to join them and be ready to greet other boats and crews as they arrive.
It’s good to be afloat again ! Fingers crossed now for some good late summer weather.
