Saturday 9 July
The Mate got the sewing machine out this morning, and used up some of the vast quantity of sewing and haberdashery she seems to have managed to smuggle aboard to make a couple of very cute cushions…as if I don’t have enough already. The crew manoeuvred me safely out of the berth and we set off back to Chichester on a lovely broad reach: I do love to flick up my petticoat
s and romp along at seven knots or more. I settled happily on my anchor for the night in my usual spot in Chichester Harbour, snoozing to the chorus of the late night water birds.
