Knots and mooring lines

Hello Sally and Claudia here,


After the fun last night which included doing a number of challenges in groups of three, Claudia feeling ill and a lot of laughs we all fell instantly asleep to wake early this morning. It was Parisa and Amy’s turn to do breakfast which was bacon and scrambled eggs so us and Christie had a sort of lie in.

After rehearsing knots and learning about the switches we realized that once again we were unable to leave Glasson dock due to the weather. We were all cheered up after a lovely lunch of hotdogs and tuna sandwiches for Parisa. We then split to two groups. We were working with Ian who helped us make some cookies, while the others learned what to do when preparing what to do when we leave. When we swapped Christie and Amy made Christies chocolate crispy cake (cccc). Then we all went top do learn and be tested on what to do at the dock.

We were all cold and wet after a little spell of rain and were very grateful to be greeted by Dawns great hot chocolate. We had a chill until it was time for Amy and Parisa to serve our tea of chicken korma. Over tea we had a lot of laughs and some interesting conversations. We are very looking forward to some good weather tomorrow hopefully.


Bye for now Sally and Claudia ;)
