Party Time!
The harbour is full of old gaff-riggers, flags and bunting fluttering from every shroud and spar. The town is alight with music and entertainers, either in the huge marquee on the quay, or all over the town square. "Officially", Gaffers is the first port of the Summer Cruise, and this year we were joined by daughters Hayley & Nuala and Brother Ray with his wife Eilis and two friends John & Sue from Portsmouth. Much partying, a few (!) beers and sing-songs late into the night. A great weekend!

Thursday, we had an evening at Westward, Friday a table at "On the Rocks" (always a great favourite), and on Saturday night, while Ray & party dined at "The George" we were joined on MiddleWatch by our friends Sue & John. The weather which had been very poor in the run-up, was excellent, although it did start to act up a bit on the Sunday. However, all the visitors left early, except for Hayley, who stayed for lunch.
