Earlier this week we hopped a local bus to the shopping centre near the airport. Handily about 3 miles away and with some super friendly passengers. We were on a mission to swap our depleted Sodastream cartridges for new ones and there is one electrical store, Darty, that stocks them. Of course we couldn't leave with only two cartridges, we added new hair clippers to the cart to replace ours that have just died.
Late afternoon yesterday I was walking Polly on the dock, she knows the word walkies and loves us to accompany her on her travels, a bit like a trailing security blanket, and when we came back to the boat David was missing. Following the sound of his dulcet Lancastrian tones I discovered him having drinks on the neighbouring boat. Not one to miss out I grabbed a beverage, stepped over the guard rails and joined them. 'Them' are Patrice and Danielle on French Ty-Maumo.
Marina life is very social. It's a village of arrivals and departures, hellos and goodbyes.
