Shsss ! .... Glad you enjoyed them,... after about 5 years on and off cruising, you might have got around them all and discovered many of their secrets ,.. but not them all,.. because after 20.. I'm still finding them

Just look at the water - like gin - the Bristol Channel is more like Windsor soup!!!

At least we don't have any midges - was it too early for them?

Hardly any midgies slight sea breeze kept them away, but 7 days of sunshine its worth a couple of bites
