I've now spotted a rope/chain strung from her bow - it's at full stretch but I can't see what's at the end of it because of some trees. She isn't moving so I presume she has dropped anchor to prevent getting pushed into the rocks. She isn't listing so with luck is ok and will just have to wait for a higher and calmer tide to get away. Fingers crossed. eh.
Hopefully she'll stay put until help can get to her!
My nephew is a Captain with the merchant navy and he has some pretty scary stories about battling against Mother Nature! :eek:

High tide two hours ago, next one just before midnight.
Hopefully all on board are ok..

My advise is to never expose your bits, especially when it's windy.:laugh: . They tend to turn a funny colour so im told :whistle:

I have my rear light flashing and a front torch type on flash..Big flou orange waterproof plus at my size it must be spotted early:becool: but their choice.
I like to be 'seen' although not in a poseur way

I always wear black in cold weather if the sun is out. Absorbs the heat better.

I ride single track country roads mostly interspersed with the local Route 75 cycle track which has a fair amount of dog and other walkers on it. I join it locally and jump on and off at different points. I just feel in those circumstances you should be 'visible' but its their choice...
Sun, heat? I'm lost at this stuff...
I also have a light blue lightweight waterproof jacket for summer
