When in doubt

We had hoped to leave Campbeltown this afternoon, to anchor at Sanda Island, but got distracted. Peter who had been at the Campbeltown rally in Cuan Mist, set off back to Bangor at lunchtime. A couple of hours later Alison heard the lifeboat start up, and turned on the radio to listen to what was going on. It turned out that Cuan Mist had suffered from engine failure, and after sailing back to Campbeltown ended up being towed in to the dock by the RNLI. By the time Cuan Mist was safely tied up it had started to rain, and Sanda no longer felt attractive, so we decided to stay at Campbeltown another night.
