Sunday 22.11.14. Last night it came on a very heavy shower of rain so we threw a tarpaluan over us so we were alright & never got wet. This morning one of the boats broke down & one of the cruisers went to her assistance this morning is much cooler & also the y days are getting shorter just fancy 8 am here & its dinner time at home this afternoon passed away very enjoyable to hear the band & also some Piano and Cornet playing
