If we'd gone out on the junk, we'd have probably headed for one of the secluded beaches for a dip and a spin in the speedboat but lack of numbers have scuttled the trip. As for the sherry, no thankyou. Mother in-law tackle that, I'll stick to the champagne and mulled wine as we shiver on the beach.
