Week 9 - Wednesday - silence is golden

There is one thing about the boat that I am not missing...............the smoke alarm!

Every day we cook something on the boat that sets off the alarm.

This happens EVERY day and yet EVERY time we forget to remove the alarm before cooking. Why is that?

There is a similar group amnesia around bringing in the fenders when we leave moorings. Every day one fender always gets left attached.

I now count them as they are brought in (should be 7) to check.

No idea why these things happens......I can only conclude that we are all getting older!!

By the way - toast under the grill sets the alarm off fastest!

    In my defence the day we THOUGHT we'd lost a fender it turned out that it WAS on the boat ... just not where you expected it to be.
