Christmas Day 2025

When it’s just the two of us and the cat there are no rules, no ‘must do’s’, except for me it was a no boat jobs, no housework day. Not quite for David.

We’d decorated Jackster with our small Christmas tree (which Polly views as a toy to attack), coloured lights strung around the salon and, new this year, a string of white solar powered lights for the cockpit. Finally we have solar power!

We eat our Christmas dinner in the evening when it’s cooler. This years’ menu was a bottle of champagne and fois gras and then a pork wellington, aka a posh sausage roll. Of course this left David with a free afternoon to change the fuel pump on the generator which had a slight leak.

Today’s job, the fuel pump, is a small generic item which he felt would be improve the performance of the genset by replacing with the spare which he had in stock. Once that was done we went the traditional post, or in our case, pre dinner walk. Polly did her own thing today.


Let's begin


a happy Christmas day
