Afternoon all,

Hope your Monday is off to a positive start. ✨

If you're seeking a bit of slow on your break in the form of a podcast/ long read, I posted a blog entry yesterday about autumn boat life 👀

Taking time to slow down has helped me focus on my new book:
Never Two Late: Three Years Afloat with Steve, Mexi and Me – Living, Loving & Learning on the Waterways 💙🚤

Out end of October – can’t wait to share it!

An over land trip yesterday for a change, by bus to collect the repaired chart plotter from Dartmouth, with a break from a trip up and down the hills along the south Devon coast at Kingsbridge. Back to the sailing in the next couple of days 🤞

Salcombe in the early morning sun

Dinghies racing in Salcombe harbour

Isosceles on the moorings in Salcombe harbour

So I'm stuck in Salcombe on the south coast. My chart plotter decided to die and now I'm waiting for Raymarine to replace it. Still, there are a lot worse places in the world to be stuck!

The English Rivera and stunning South Devon - Sailing South When I last posted here a couple of weeks ago, Isosceles sat in Portland marina while I was sunning myself in beautiful Weymouth. Since then I've been enjoying the sights of the English Riviera and so...

I've been distracted these last few weeks, sailing and enjoying the sunny, sometimes cold, British spring.
There's been a few blog posts, but the latest one is here: sailingsouth.org/the-english-...

I've been up on the roof again. The seedlings and saplings are loving the sunshine and they're all coming along nicely.

View along a tranquil canal toward Somerton Deep Lock in the English countryside, with people operating the lock and green fields and trees in the background. A narrowboat is moored in the foreground on the right.

After a great week on Nb Hawksmoor we feel recharged and recuperated, ready to get back to work and training.

Tidied up my roof garden. Gave the perennials, saplings and herbs fresh compost. I've also sown some annual flowers.

🌼 Beeballs! A mix of native wildflower seeds which the bees love 🐝💛

One of our absolute rules on the boat. I'd much rather deal with things at 3 in the afternoon than 3 in the morning . . . and you know when the storms ALWAYS hit!

Here’s hoping the sun will show itself after last nights rain.

Golden colour swan tap with the sunshine bouncing off it.

Hi everyone! How are you all doing? All ok here, been manic but ok.

Sun is shining at just the right angle to capture our bathroom tap, thought I would share with you all 😍💖.

Have a great rest of your day!

The sunrise this morning across Ipswich waterfront marina was pretty special. The calm before the storm maybe.
