Boats and cats. The boats: my ferro Colin Archer, Nightingale and the teak beauty that is Tectona. Cats: Billy my shipmate and sometimes his buddy, Bilge.

Tectona runs voyages for folk recovering from addiction/mental health.

Aeropresses are great for boat life. So little mess... until the time comes you shoot high pressure hot water and coffee grounds all over the galley and saloon.

Crumble a firelighter on the top of the pot to keep them at bay. That or put chicken wire over the pots before they sprout.

Before I put the antenna up the mast my speeds dropped with the tide which was a bit annoying but quite funny to have tide dependent Internet.

I used a 5g router with an antenna mounted up my mast and average 70mbps download. It's cheaper than a landline connection too!

Its so easy to be on the right these days, you just utter the magic word "Soros" and all need for evidence or plausibility simply evaporates.

It's definitelt been a crap year. I've got my third session with a new therapist today but I'm finding it really hard going over things again with someone new that I don't have the same rapport with.

If it makes you feel any better, my wonderful therapist died suddenly around a month after my dad took his life last summer. I really miss him.

I used brave on phone and laptop. Mainly because it gets rid of adverts on YouTube and everything else.

That's a nice tidbit. I'm a boat builder so have a couple of adze's (adzi?) In the workshop.

There's a beautiful mountain town in Asturias called Poo. Myself and some friends made a pilgrimage there; hiked and swam in a mountain pool. It wasn't the shithole we were expecting.
