BACK IN TOWN

Oh yes, back to canal boats, instead of solo round the world or inter-island ferry vessels. It's still water but it doesn't have that all embracing seafaring whiff. It doesn't blow sand in your hair or your sandwiches. It doesn't lend the air to flypasts of Gannets, Fulmars, Arctic Skuas or Puffins.

It's unfortunately a really down to earth back to work Monday. Pff, happy memories.
