Felt a bit better today, but still couldn't summon up the stamina for yoga or boxing. However the Guitar made a re-appearance today and my chords / scales continue to improve - but alas still no real tune....
Anyway, i also managed to finally get myself reading - "The Command of the Ocean - British Naval History 1649 to 1815", and i can thoroughly recommend it. At last i know the differences between my Benbow's and Sir Cloudsley Shovell's, not to mention a bit more about British history. Horaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhh!

Captain\s Corner:
A couple of nights ago, when Jules got us pooped whilst at the helm, we noticed (a while later) the Lifesling trailing behind the boat.... Lord Jim must have tried a grab at it, but fortunately it was tied on! Unfortunately, the bag wasn't! I spent the day today making up for Yesterday's laziness, and made a new bag... It took longer than I thought though, as I first had to repair the sewing machine. As you can see, it was a little bit dark when the bag was finally ready to be mounted.
