re: Isle of Wight
Hi Guys, thanks for the email Keith at T, i ave not been online for some time, my wife had a knee replacement operation, and was virtually the last patient to leave Southampton hospital before the lockdown, so i have been a busy house husband for the past few weeks, plus of course having to order all provisions on line, in addition a large garden to try and keep a bay, so time has been short. I always wondered why my underwear drawer was always full !!!, now i know who was doing it !!, and the saying that a women's work is never done. Anyway, thanks for the concern, but all is well, and the wife taking control again, so will look in more often, best regards KT

re: Isle of Wight
When SWMBO is out of action, or away I find there is always more than enough to do.
She does most but never the cooking, that is for me, in fact she has been married for some 52 years and has never had to cook a meal, not even sure if she can.
Have a mate of mine in similar circumstances, must be a male thing!!

Re: Isle of Wight
Seems one of our onboard navigation officers dug out his old charts and compasses and revealed all.
