What next?

Post by marisca »

I've been sailing!!!!!!! Once on Marisca from Gourock where the absence of attention to all those little jobs that should have been done during lay-up was staring me in the face and an over-night from Dunstaffnage on a Starlight 35 which included a pint of draught Belhaven, the 1st for over a year.
Wonderfully cathartic and did my mental health (whatever that is) the world of good.
Came back to Niciola leaving the weegies in Level 3 and an unsettling increase in infection locally. How long a gap is likely between cuddles on Monday and the reimposition of restrictions? Am I allowed to transit Glasgow on my way to Marisca? Should I set sail for pastures fresh now?
Anyone got a crystal ball?

Was going to stay with my Sister in Ayr then ferry from Ardrossan to Brodick and on to Lochranza, then over to Kintyre and up to Ardfern.
All this to avoid Rest and be Thankful and by way of a diversion from the usual trek.
I wonder if Calmac's cancellation policy is as tricky as P and O's?

At least I've discovered that one is permitted to transit a Level 3 area so I can get to my boat without having to venture into the badlands around Glasgow.

We have been very fortunate in being able to get the boat back in the water and sail away.

Arrived in Plockton yesterday and spent a lot of a lazy today trying to understand what the wind is going to do next.
