Rain, rain, rain, sorry we are elsewhere this week -Oulton Hall near Leeds, nice hotel with spa and pool, with fantastic food.
Yesterday met up with some of my Seafaring friends Captain Roger Bancroft and wife Lindsay, Roger and myself sailed on a fantastic voyage in 1974 to the Pacific Islands including Tahiti before a commercial airport opened – 
Also pictured Chief Engineer Ray Appleyard who I also sailed with during the 1970’s and 80′ more than a few ‘Salty Stories’ exchanged over a few beers.
Today an excellent day out at the Royal Armouries.
