Day 26-30. Newcastle.

Ouch!

Friday.
I had an engineer visit the boat this morning to take a look at an overheating problem. His name was Jack Charlton.

Saturday. 
St Peter's marina just a mile from the city centre. This marina has a pub.
Passing this on the way. Apparently, it's been there for over a year.


On the trail of Ant and Dec.

River Tyne Kittiwakes.
The Tyne. A beautiful river.
Monday 7th July. Jack Charlton witnessed the overheating problem (thank the lord) and is going to replace the thermostat as a first step.

  1. Doesn't look too bad - or is it worse than it looks ? (Steve)

  3. Did Jack fix your problem with the overheating? (Wasn´t there another footballer called Bobby Charlton?) I hope that the engine is still under guarantee. It has given you a lot of trouble all in all. Yes, pity about the bang. It doesn´t look bad but it still hurts (you not the boat).

    We have had two days of bad weather, really not like June at all. I actually considered putting on the central heating this evening but it seems to have stopped raining and is warmer. Hope you are having good weather, Brendan.

  4. Last night, I dreamt that I was sailing in a sea of soda.

    I wish I could go back to that Fanta sea.

    Ouch!
    That doesn’t look too bad. Is it a polyyfilla job? You could always say that a shark jumped up and bit a chunk off the boat. But we wouldn’t believe you xx

    1. I assume the road was named after James Bolam.

  6. Yes Brendan, Times Magazine is all about Ant and Dec and how they started off there.

  7. Azura looks very impressive. A passenger liner waiting to re-start when restrictions lift, I suppose.
    Where are you headed next?
