Tobermory


After the high winds of Thursday we took a day off from sailing in Tobermory, looking round the town and shops in the morning.

I rinsed the salt off the decks and sides, then touched up some of the paint that had been chipped over the season, while Julian cooked up more mackerel for dinner. We then had a think about where to leave Robinetta for the winter. There are a lot of places near Oban and Crinan who do laying up ashore, but they all have different drawbacks and advantages, so it's not an easy choice.

We went to An Tobar, the arts centre, in the evening, to listen to Rab Noakes and Kathleen MacInnes doing a set of Love and Murder Ballads. Fun! And wonderful singing and playing.
