(Un)Welcome Aboard

Posted on June 7, 2016 by pensitivity101

Change of plan

Posted on February 26, 2015 by pensitivity101

Today, we were expecting visitors, but something came up and they had to cancel. This took me back to yesteryear when every time we planned for something, it went wrong. The good news is that the boat is spotless, naughty … Continue reading →

Come share our Christmas

Posted on December 21, 2014 by pensitivity101

This will be our 26th Christmas together. Our first was sitting cross-legged at the coffee table in a rented flat, with little gifts as we were both skint and had done most of our Christmas shopping at car boot sales. … Continue reading →
