Finally dragged ourselves away from the 'fleshpots' of Neiafu. Had a
pleasant drift down to anchorage number six, where the much-touted WIFI is not
in evidence!
Got the anchor down and Freya volunteered to go and check that it had set
properly. Some time elapsed without hearing any 'splashing' and when I enquired
was told:
"But the Sun's not out, it's too chilly to swim!"
So, WWW, Warm Water Williams. Apparently she takes after her parents, but I
don't remember either of them being such wimps. I mean, we were in the Shetland
Islands together and any fule kno that if you're a wimp you wouldn't be in
the Shetlands! One of the few places where on what passed for a hot summers day
the beer was self-chilling and needed to be warmed up beforwe it could be
drunk:) Or at least, that's how I remember it.
