Today it was laundry day.  I was given the key to the laundry room at the marina and allowed to help myself to the two machines and driers for the morning at a very reasonable price.  I managed two loads with a short dry before my session was over and spent the afternoon monitoring the washing on a line on deck in the strong winds of the afternoon.  It made a nice change to use an automatic washing machine rather than our little manual twin-tub.

Richard went off to get some fresh bread for lunch and came back to report that the market just across the road was well worth a look.  So I took a short break and we went for a walk around the market; the stalls were crammed with fresh fruit and vegetables so it looks like we will stocking up.

There is still a problem with the registration of our internet dongle so Richard went off to a bar this afternoon for some wifi so that we could synchronise our emails and post the well overdue blogs.
