Yesterday in the sunshine we walked along the beach, so many people about, we are like birds, enjoying the weather, fluffed up and facing the sun.
We went into a ships chandlers, so full of exciting stuff, cleats, stripy ropes, hooks and everything waterproof, including coats. I was lost, overtaken with 'what could I use that for' and what is 'tarred hemp' how can I use that?....... good job that my other half had met someone he knows so while they chatted... sorry ...had a discussion ... about lines and rigging... I was making mental notes... I hope I can remember them all...
At the boat yard there were some amazing shapes and colours, the battery on the camera deserted me and once again I was wishing that I'd got my sketch book.
Lessons to be learned -
- Always check battery in camera
- Take sketch book on walks.

Both your lessons to be learned are ones that I still have not learned - no matter how many times I am out and realize I have forgotten one, the other, or both!
