Falmouth

Falmouth is full of boats, none of which look in the least like Erin Mae.


Number 1 son this year acquired a cool looking Achilles 24 called "Snow Goose". Very nice.


He was as keen to show us around as we were to look, so we enjoyed a good inspection.


Sometime next year we'll hopefully get to accompany him under sail to Frenchman's Creek or some other spot suitable for a picnic.

We're actually down in Cornwall in honour of a significant birthday – what a sweet child he was those X0 years ago. Given that it's December, and considering the weather conditions at Erin Mae's marina, we're doing very well. We've a very nice location…


… (that's our room, at the top, on the sunny side) with a pretty stunning view from our balcony.


 We even sat out on the balcony in the sun for a short while this morning after inspecting Snow Goose.


Tomorrow, of course, is likely to be very different as we motor home in the afternoon.

But first we have a celebration at what Number 1 son calls "Falmouth's best kept secret" – a speciality seafood restaurant. A crowd of his friends will be there, and we're anticipating that a good time will be had by all. He doesn't yet know that my best beloved has baked a couple of her best chocolate cakes, to be topped by some silly X0th birthday candles.

Well, these occasions don't come along very often.
