ChrisB Posted November 7, 2014 Share Posted November 7, 2014 The Ken Duxbury classic of open boat cruising has been republished by Pub Lodestar @ £16. This is all three books so good value. A great read! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Polly Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 I may well look into that. I recall that Lynne was mystified that Brilliant has curtains and, of course, she has a carpet, so maybe I am too soft for 'Lugworm'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JennyMorgan Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 I suppose having a cabin is a bit of a luxury anyway so just as well to let the ladies indulge themselves, if only for some peace & quiet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mirage Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 Just saw Poppy's Avatar, thought it was a High Street warning notice on banks Probably more suited to 2008, but still relevant in 2014 methinks 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
