Down the Plughole.

Port-na-storm HQ has been a hive of activity over the last few weeks but sadly none of it has been about boats or boating. The truth is we're fitting a new bathroom, the coral pink suite has been smashed into the skip and the luxurious corner bath in GRP  has been carved into pieces with a wave of the angle grinder.  This edifice of pink and chrome was a triumph of form over function being possibly the most uncomfortable bath ever made. It'll be a few weeks before its all over, so in the meantime please bear with if the transmissions are a bit irregular. 

We had a holiday in Greece a few weeks ago, so meantime here are some photos of the local life to keep you amused. 

I thought a refugee ship from North Africa had landed at the quay-side but it turns out they were just trippers. 

 Some of the local inshore fishing fleet,

This year's award for the ugliest boat on the Island goes to ........

I would have taken this one home. I love these little Greek fishing boats, they are very shapely, and very seaworthy.

 This one had been dumped in front of a Hotel to provide some local "character".

 I doubt if that engine will ever go again. 

   

Tourist boats of every description. 

The deep sea fishing fleet 

Our Hotel is up there somewhere.
