Day 203 - THREE'S A CROWD

A  Happier day you will all be pleased to know!!
We were invited to go out of Rye today on our friends boat. They brought Caledris back from the States last year after it being there for 10years and finally got it back in the water a few months ago. This was the first time out in the English Channel this year. I thought Peter would give up his bowls to come today as he loves going out with them but each time the boat has been becalmed!
Here I am arriving this morning
Peter drove me over and said goodbye after taking our photo
 Here is MY THREE'S A CROWD photo couldn't be more perfect for today!

 At their moorings we had to wait for the tide to turn before we could leave.
 Here is the town of Rye as we went down the River Rother to the open sea
 and Rye harbour and the Harbour Masters HQ before the open sea
 It was the Run for Gold races today which we went out to watch
 Here I am at the helm, looking very nervous at first!!!
 John putting the sails down as we came back to the river mouth
 and here we are going back to Rye Harbour 
We were back home at 4pm and I have sat outside in glorious hot sunshine in shorts and top reading and drinking a nice glass of red wine

and about the socks I never lose a pair these days...(I did when the boys lived with us, I swear socks have a life of their own LOL!!) but the seem to change sizes and length somehow and Peter cannpt see that!!!

  6. Glad you had a nice day. It has been so hot here today even being out on the water would have been miserable.
