Rodney Bay Marina (still), St Lucia
Dear Friends,
Specifically, those who have commented on our blogs and never been answered, we send to you our most humble apologies. Having managed our blogs for some 17 years now, the Galley Slave has only just stumbled upon the Comments section. Here lie many missives, that until now, have mostly sat forlorn and unnoticed. This apology also extends to you too Alexandra, one of our most loyal readers. Oh dear!
Our Galley Slave has just finished revitalising the now ageing blogs. A perfect job indeed when on hurricane watch sitting in a marina for a few months. Low season maintenance tasks! We have six blogs to manage, with only two connected to our regularly accessed, email accounts. These are the busiest blogs, although I hasten to add that none of them are appearing in any top ten popularity lists (just yet!). That’s fine with us; we’re not in it for glory, money or bikini-clad bow-bunnies. We started our blogs as an easy way of keeping contact with family and friends as we moved about and to have journals to remind us, in our dotage, of “our wilful youth.” They are also a way for us to participate in and share with our communities. The Cap’n writes of his boat maintenance efforts and GS, her travel and textile finds. Our Cap’n is also a big fan of the Cruiser net community. Many a problem has been thus solved.
Thank you all for your efforts to engage us. We shall endeavour to be more attentive and prompt in the future. Always learning! And a big thank you to everyone who reads and enjoys our adventures.
Saturday, 9th November, is nearly upon us. WJ3's nose will then be pointed north, after a couple of days acclimating in Rodney Bay, to the hardship of wind, swell and waves. We heard it was snowing in the US already... Just whose idea was this?
