Not So Soggy Summer Weekend - Day 3

A day in Tollesbury today. After sausage butties for breakfast, we went for a wander. First stop was a toddle along the footpath out to the FACT Lightship (formerly the Channel light vessel) having a good look at the saltings moorings.

(FACT, by the way, is the Fellowship Afloat Charitable Trust. Google if you want to know more!)

Then we headed up into the village stopping off at Fred's Stores for essential supplies and a circuit of the village before popping in to the cafe by the hard for coffee.

Back on board, Jane tidied the cabin and washed up whilst I dried off the inflatable canoe, stowed it away and sluiced out the cockpit.

After hitting the showers, we ate on board and then topped up the water tank before repairing to the club for drinks. Glorious evening with a relieving breeze to take the edge of the heat. We've had all hatches and vents wide open this afternoon it's been so warm. Boy does that make a change!

Off to sleep at a sensible time as it's a moderately early start in the morning.
