Yesterday, His Podgeness ordered a desert for the first time in 3-weeks. This morning it would seem that all shirts have shrunk (poor Podge). As a result breakfast was extremely uncomfortable-poor Podge. Naturally, the shirt was changed soon after having established that at least three shirts have clearly been affected by the salt water shrinking effect.

2nd visit to the cage bar – it was only supposed to be a quick beer then back to the suite for a lie down but, after 4-beers we decided to stop at the glass house on board and have a late lunch (we can then skip the evening meal) which was to be accompanied by a glass of Bacchus and a glass of fizzy pop only to find out that lunch included two glasses of sparking white wine which naturally, accompanied our original choice.

Today was another day when we were to be made to feel very special, recognised and appreciated. Today, once more, we were invited to senior officers lunch with the odd drink or two, or three, or four 🥴. After which, once more, both Podge and Tubbs needed a bit of a lie down afterwards.

Re-Posting in advance of a new Hospital Visit adventure 🥴
Well, there we were in 2020 and it’s been a long time since I wrote anything under COPD. I make no excuses because that’s exactly what they would be, excuses; seeking to lessen the blame; but the blame is all mine :-).

Today was to be the day when Podge found the ideal tour for The Duchess, it was an excursion to view the Bonaire Flamingos and the Salt Flats of Bonaire (Picture from BonaireSeaSalt.com), a journey through the lush mangrove preserves towards the beautiful south-east of Bonaire. To be honest, I suspect Debbie had no real interest in the Salt Flats as her primary interest was seeing the pink flamingos. 🦩
