MauriceMynah Posted September 15, 2019 Share Posted September 15, 2019 Not wanting to derail Speedtriple's thread (I wouldn't dare) I noted that after it became dark, he watched one of his favourite DVDs, the classic "Mark of Zorro". Now, In this country the weather can be pretty fickle, and having a few DVDs on board is handy for when the inclement weather coincides with Jayfire and Gracie having drunk all the booze the pubs had. So! what do you take? Think of this as the video version of Desert Island Discs. You are taking your 10 favourite DVDs. What do you take? (I'm still considering mine) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ranworthbreeze Posted September 22, 2019 Share Posted September 22, 2019 I bought a few cheaper DVD's before coming down to the boat and I bought 3 DVD's from a charity shop in Beccles for a pound. All watched up so for the next couple of nights I will have to watch some out of the DVD wallet we keep aboard Ranworth Breeze.
