The mill pond for the Tidemill seen from the other side of the river. An image from the Frith collection.

Once a historian - always a historian - even if I swear I have said what I had to say. This is the Tidemill Yacht harbour before it was a yacht harbour. It was then a vaste mill pond for the Tidemill corn mill - just visible to the left. An econimic / social / environmental history of the boat yards and havens up and down the river would be nice. (The boat trade and the river Deben - 1800 to 2010)   In our endings are our beginnings. (You won't understand this unless you know that my first book was The Pottery Trade and North Staffordshire, 1660-1760) So have spent a day vaguely thinking about it.  I don't really have the time or energy - - do I?

Have also done the usual trivia and been to the gym and advertised a laser for sale.

Today - the summer solstice.

Not sure how to acknowledge it even. I thought it was the whole day - but apparently not - the time (GMT) given here from:-

Needless to say the sun itself is not in sight.

Swallow on a noticeboard - Deben Yacht Club

The noticeboard is outside the changing rooms. They have nested late here - some nested earlier under the balcony. They stayed with the nest all day - inspite of masses of activity within a few meters. Swallows were here in a similar position last year.

I am surprised not to have a lot of aches and pains today - maybe the good effect of resistance training. I did not expect ever to race again and it reminded me - what fun and enjoyment - what effort and pain.

Grossed in sun and did a minor repair all day.

River walk from the sailing club balcony

Today - the Woodbridge regatta. The river bank and all the open areas adjacent were full of stalls, eateries and people.

Just after the start of the Topper race. The wind got up later.

And there was some racing in sight of the revellers. I did two laps of a big course in the streaker which started after the toppers had finished (I came in after an hour and a quarter as I was tired and also had some equipment failures). The first time I have raced for about three years. The wind was pretty good for about half the time - then dropped. It is very variable here - a lot of gusts and shifts. Various muscles are protesting but I don't feel any worse than I did a few years back.

Aim - to finish one race this season (they do very long races and wonder why more people don't race). (One of the problems of handicap racing due to the need to give the really fast boats a decent length of race which is too long for the slower boats.)

The week - full of domestic trivia and bad weather. I even did some shopping and cooking. Do feminists bake cakes?

The weather is frustrating attempts to go sailing in Lookfar or in a dinghy. High wind is forecast over the weekend and into next week. With rain. It looks as if I will be forced to write documentation, as I have almost tidied the flat and done my accounts.

All the usual trivia - and the weather sunny - a bit spoilt by not being out of doors enough.

DYC standard courses: starts from the clubhouse

Aimed at my friends in sailing clubs - this seems a good idea. Apparently it helps to get sensible courses - helped by the ability to leave the marks in over the summer. I have had to draw them out on maps, with coloured pencils, to make any sense of them.
Very horrible weather still.

Sunny in the morning but it became cold and windy, with heavy rain after lunch.
I went to the boat and  fixed the mainsail on the boom before it rained.

At low tide alongside the town quay - the entrance to the Tidemill marina is between the white buildings

Talked to the families that own these boats on the way there. Scuttled back as the wind got colder and the rain nastier. The rest of the day indoors - partly doing some useful things (such as studying the sailing club's standard race courses - which were incomprehensible but are getting easier as I get more familiar with the river)  but mostly not doing much at all.

a.m. A good session in the gym. The rest of the day trying to sort out my house (as usual - it seems a never-ending task) and an expedition to the shops and to drink coffee in Neros - yet again. The weather is not nice - so no grossing in  the sun. Wrote emails and watched tele - as usual.
I am wondering how to exesise the brain - implying a re-think about how to live.

I had lunch with Aidan in London - got drenched with heavy rain - wandered around a couple of old stamping grounds - headed for the train back quite early. As there was some chaos on the line ahead this was just as well - but there was only a minor delay in the end. Then supper at the sailing club. A rather long day - but I felt good at the end of it.

a.m. The birds indicate an improvement in mood this morning - they are supposed to move around - very silly.... Almost finished doing tax accounts - now a lot of checking tedious detail - not as if I have a mega-income.

p.m. Visit to Ipswich hospital to oncology clinic and to get more supplies of the wonder-drug. It all seems to be working and indeed I feel quite 'normal' - whatever that conveys to you. Heavy rain on my return somewhat dampening to mood.

a.m. A bit gloomy when I got up with nothing very interesting in prospect. Still putting books on shelves, a blood test and home via the shops.
p.m.  stayed around the house in the afternoon waiting for a chair to be delivered - which it was. Some progress with doing tax. Sunny and windy outside.

11-50 hrs: got up feeling a bit depressed - an hour in the gym was good and am now trying to catch up with domestic admin, dealing with U3A website and putting books on shelves. (Yes - they are still on the floor).

eve: The rest of the day - lots of minor things -domestic admin,  cycled to the boat (put on the genoa), back via the shops and more domestic triva alongside watching tele.

a.m. Heavy rain all day and a cold wind - back into winter clothes and off with sandals. I am intending to make a daily entry on the blog - as good discipline for me. Not, I hope, a substitute for writing proper letters (ie emails).
 

21-00 hrs: Geology group of U3A - last meeting until September. I like geology - I like the stimulus the group gives, but I often find going to a meeting a bit annoying. I also find U3A a bit annoying too.

Went into Ipswich hospital for an Xray after, which did not take very long as oncology xrays are fast-tracked.  (The special xray unit for oncology was merged with the general unit and the deal was that we would not have to wait long.) Usual feeling of unease as I was called before some other people - but also pleased at not having a long wait.

Did nothing of any significance for the rest of the day - dropped into the letting agent to get someone to fix some electricity glitches, had a coffee in Nero's and bought a pair of shorts and a sun hat in the hope of better weather. General feeling of dissatisfaction by the evening.

Saturday

Downwind finish - Mike in his streaker.

Monday 8-40 hrs: The last five days much taken up with boating - but I have not been afloat. The long race on Saturday (6 N miles approx) was too windy for my muscles - (three boats launched from the club and only two finished). I hung out on the balcony of the club and sat in the sun. This was frustrating as I had prepared the boat and myself for the event. Then Sunday was too windy as well, so I visited Lookfar, where it was cold and windy by the afternoon - but I did fix a few things apart from which I did nothing all day apart from reading a few pages of a geology text book. Too much tele . .

Lookfar lifted. Tidemill office behind the bow. The green car has all my picnic gear spread out next to it

 20-40 hrs: Up an hour earlier than usual to go to Tidemill - the boat was due to be lifted and the repair finished. Sat in the sun (and tidied the car) whilst the crane did other things. It was hot and still and quiet - one of those summer mornings.

The underside - showing the new gasket and the refurbished plate holding it in.

Then - the slot gasket was done and ( after the picture) I patched the anti-fouling. Launched after lunch and did nothing much else for the rest of the day, apart from lounging in the cockpit. It clouded in the afternoon  and a cold wind came in - but still shorts-weather. The deck is dirty and the inside needs to be sorted out - but we are at least back in the water.

20-00 hrs: Went streakering this morning and am beginning to feel at one with the boat. Righted a capsize and got back in easily. Lots of muscles I did not know I had are now aching. Excellent fun. And have done very little since apart from look at piles of books on the flooir in the hope that they will put themselves onto shelves.

Week in Woodbridge 7

a.m.: to the gym, which was crowded and my muscles tired from yesterday, but came out feeling better. Now settling down to do something useful - - namely a re-organisation of the books, files and other stuff in my room.

20-20 hrs: I spent the afternoon at B&Q getting shelves and other bits to help with the tidy-up. I fear it is displacement activity to avoid tax and writing! Spent time since I got back making the shlves and carrying files and books around - it has to be done I suppose.

Week in Woodbridge 6

a.m. Off to accompany trainee sailors in Wayfarers downstream - over the tide - to have a picnic at 'the Rocks' with lots of warm clothes and food  packed.

I drove the big DYC Safety boat - with bouys, bags of food and much else.
We had two Ribs with us as well

19-45: just back - missing Dr Who. An interesting day with wind gusting 20 to 30 knots - several boats under jib alone going at 5.5 knots - with the tide - on the way back. More harmless fun.

Week in Woodbridge 5

The central part of Woodbridge - covering my normal stamping grounds.
The sailing club is just off the map, downstream  to the left.

a.m. The gym before anything else - usual beneficial effect on well-being. Indigestion all night due to eating too much too late yesterday - dodgy digestion came back during the day from time to time - proof that side-effects need to be respected.

And the rest of the day - did things at home, cycled to the Tidemill (to get some screws from the boat and also had a pleasant chat with a boat owner who has just moved here) - then to the sailmakers (to get some rope for righting lines) and to the shops (for food). Back home - lots of minor domestic things and a few emails. Also took an hour and a half (and two drills) to drill two holes in the Streaker's rudder so that I can fit a better way to hold the rudder down and also get it up in shallow water. Nothing dramatic - and very little  stirring of the mud

Week in Woodbridge 4

a.m. Today we have - - things to do to put off the hour of writing documents. Easier because the weather is overcast and cold, so I am not tempted to go out into the sun. A pleasant morning writing letters and surfing the web for dinghy goodies.This day two years ago I had arrived in Wells. I still feel - what is the word - disturbed at not living that life anymore - like mud at the bottom of a pool being disturbed if prodded. Maybe I will buy some dinghy goodies as consolation - - -which I did. And spent the afternoon mooching in the shops and avoiding heavy rain showers. 

Start of evening race seen from the clubhouse - just after the start gun.
The start line is the two white dots on the far bank and the fleet are heading into the wind and current - so is there a reason for being shy of the line?

 Evening racing - I thought it would be too windy so did not take my gear. Spent the rest of the evening eating and looking at rigging on streakers.

Week in Woodbridge 3

a.m. Not sure how to spend the day - sunshine forecast so am temped by the beach. In the end - decide I need to recoup strength, so go to the gym and plan to do useful things in the sun. The gym - a life-saver and an important part of my life here; I try to go every other day. I do a varied routine of resistance training using free weights which normally takes about an hour to an hour and a quarter. At the moment I am gradually increasing the range of what I do and the weights I use, so it also confirms my general well-being or otherwise.

But some unease inside - two years ago I ran away to sea but only got as far as Woodbridge. I did intend to go much further and have to be careful not to rage that it has not been possible. Why not rage? - good question - I feel that I have landed up somewhere with a better lifestyle than I had before - interesting sailing, different boats and two bathrooms - so I would not be respecting my life if I did too much weeping and gnashing of teeth. But - - - -

21-30: I have spent the whole day doing various small things - mostly in the sun - and (probably) avoiding doing some writing. It is often thus. All the trivia - including putting out the rubbish, mending a sail, looking at boats,cooking a batch of fish pies, buying things and gossiping to various people about all sorts of things like how to make vegetable stock out of broad bean and pea shells. But I did put in two hours on the U3A web site updating a lot of articles about interest groups.

Week in Woodbridge 2

the beach with pebbles and waves: to cheer me up

21.15: Tuesday - a different day - reaction to several busy days. A lot of sun and a cold wind. 

Slept badly and got up feeling feeble and continued to feel out of sorts all day. I got to the marina for 9-00 in order to give Richard some bits of boat to be collected by a rigger. Then did nothing and dozed fitfully in the cockpit but I did sort out the boot of the car to leave room for picnic things for beach visits. Got home for lunch - watched a bit of TV - lazed around and did nothing.

I intended to sail the streaker in the evening - so I went to the sailing club with my gear at 17-00 but I really did not feel like it. I did help someone rig their boat and mend a small gash in my sail. Had some coffee and a wee chat and came home. Watched TV whilst I made and ate supper. Relunctant to go to bed incase I don't sleep and cannot be bothered to do any web work or documentation. So it is not all rush-around in Woodbridge.

Week in Woodbridge 1

From Bawdsey beach - looking upstream across the Deben to Felixstow Ferry;
sea kale in flower in the foreground

20-50 hrs: I do not expect this week to be typical - for one thing there is more wind and sun forecast than usual. And I plan to do more sailing things than usual.

Monday - to the gym (geology group not meeting today) and then packed a load of beach-survival-things to go to the beach to look at the waves and gravel. But a lot of fussing around the flat - clearing the gear from being on rescue yesterday, filing papers, answering a couple of emails. I make it out eventually and go to the shops on the way  to Bawdsey Quay, (about 8 miles away) where I park the car overlooking the river - eat - drink coffee - watch the waves - usual things. Both an early and a late lunch.

Eventually walked out to the beach along the footpath - put on a lot of clothes due to strong and cold wind. The waves in the river almost show in the picture. Took pictures of sea kale, gravel, waves and a few plants. Collected two kilo of gravel for an experiment (of which more later - but probably unsuccessful). Returned to the car and grossed out in the tea room. Then back to Woodbridge. 

Nothing much since apart from eating a small supper (due to a lot of eating during the day) and doing some editing on the U3A website - it needs to be done asap.

the keel on the ground - ignore the ladder

11-00 hrs: The keel runs up and down on runners on each side - the red arrow points to one of them. The blue strap winds the keel up and down from inside the boat, through the slot at the bottom ( a red arrow points to this). 

What stops it falling out? Answer - nothing apart from the strap. It may have rested on the fitting that holds the slot gasket in place.

The design is for a nylon bush to be fitted at approximately the place of the round red circle. This then catches on a ridge in the keel casing and stops it falling out. Nice. But - mine did not have one. It does now,  the Tidemill staff made and fitted one before the keel was put back.

But - you may say - how do I get it out next time I need to inspect it? Good question - the nylon bush unbolts through holes in the keel case inside - necessitating the removal of a lot of woodwork and the galley to get at it - so a non-trivial thing to do. But feasable.

At least I am not going to have the keel fall out of the bottom next time I do something daft. And I better understand the whole mechanism as a result of all this.

Sloes

11-15 hrs: They are fat and nice near water but those in dry areas do not seem to be so good. They also seem quite early - as are the elder flowers.

The keel - and the gasket. Note the runners at the top and the blue tape

The slot. The blue tape is used to wind it up.
The marks of the runners show along the edge of the hole.
There is a fitting to go into the grotty part.

13-15 hrs: Good stuff. The keel is back in having been checked over and some re-furbishment done. There was a lot more to doing this than a simple statement suggests. And Richard did some cool crane-driving to position the boat to get the keel back in - and the staff did a lot of positioning of the keel as well. More to it than meets the eye. I did not have my camera on me when it happened - - - .

Now - a new slot gasket which means another ride on the crane - probably middle of next week.

I will also tell you in another post what stops it falling out of the bottom of the boat other than the blue tape.

Lookfar is lifted high enough to get the keel out. Getting it back in was the fun part as it is pretty heavy.

13-40 hrs: This is really a picture of the crane. The keel is out for inspection and I hope to have a repair plan soon. 

Last week - a lot of hanging around - and an infection in my right eye. Weather dull but warm except for cold winds - trouser weather - good bye balmy days of early summer.

my streaker and DYC dinghy park

16-00 hrs: I have not forgotten you all - or how to capsize. (Last time I capsized - maybe three years ago). I went streaking a couple of times and finished up being tipped into the river by a mooring yesterday.  Righted the boat without trouble but then found - - - I could not get back into it. Much effort and use of the safety cover got me ashore eventually. And note this - you sailors in the North - it was like falling into a bath - it was not really cold at all (I had three thermals, a watertight jacket and short wetsuit). Fun - fun - fun. I now need to make a ladder to get myself aboard and do a lot more dinghy sailing - I had forgotten what pleasure it is - -

Life here is sunny and windy, - shorts/tee shirt weather. The battallions of  side effects are under control, I have sat around on the beach and done nice things. I also have had (including the capsize) epic sailing in the streaker. Lookfar is waiting the be lifted by the big crane and I have done a few improvements to the rigging. I have mostly kept out of trouble.

 

 

 

Gravel bank at the mouth of the river Deben - looking seawards.

20-00 hrs: It has been very windy and sunny all weekend. I walked out onto the gravel banks at the mouth of the Deben and then along the beach. Rough sea and cold wind - but I found sheltered places to gross out. Much needed after the excesses of last week.

the keel

11-00 hrs: The picture does not show the problem (which is inside) - it will have to be lifted on a crane and the keel dropped out. There is a holding plate for a gasket to be removed and renovated as well.

I do not know whether to do some useful things whilst it is out of the water (I have a long list) or whether to sulk off somewhere and pretend it never happened. But both the surveyor and the yard have said not to worry - it will be fine. At least it is only money and at least it has been found before other damage is done. And I have seen a kestrel from the cockpit - several times.

Lift-off  yesterday

The view from my cockpit this afternoon.

20-55hrs: I had the boat lifted for a survey - theory was it went back in this morning. Unfortunately the lifting keel is missing some plastic bits on which it runs - so the boat is resting on shore for a couple of weeks until the marina has time to lift it and inspect the keel fully. 

Today, yesterday and the day before were taken up with this, although not all the time. I managed to get very cold - to lie in the sun - to eat too much and to wander around. Upsetting - and probably expensive - but that is sailing for you - - . 

20-20 hrs: streaking this afternoon for the first time. Hot day - short wetsuit and no spraytop. Not much wind. No pictures as I was busy doing it.

The streaker is the best dinghy (apart from the fireball) that I have ever sailed - wonderful and it will get better when the wind increases. It slides through the water and has more space than the laser. And I managed to land on our narrow ramp without problem. Quite energy-intensive of course.

Spring in Woodbridge

20-20 hrs: Spring here is marked by the launching of boats. This a wonderful wooden ketch - with many original features and probably the largest our crane lifts. Spent most of the day messing about in boats and talking to boaters. The weather is like the Mediterranean.

20-30 hrs. A strange ten days or so - in which I did quite a few things around boats but also did not feel that I wanted to write about the activity because I actually felt quite inactive - so the list of actions makes me sound healthier and better than I am actually feeling.

I now own a streaker - and I have spent a bit of time scrubbing it and its cover - and mending the centre board and the cover. The toe strap came off - glad it was ashore! It was mostly in sunshine - sitting on a chair borrowed from the sailing club. The sun encouraged the wearing of sun hat and shorts.

I have sailed out in Lookfar a couple of times. Once to park it at the sailing club overnight so that Aidan and I could go downriver for lunch. This we did on Saturday - went too far and only just made it back to the marina where we scrunched the keel over the sill - like I have done before and ought to know better. Today's panic was to arrange a survey so that the insurance company is happy. Job for Thursday is that I need to make sure that there are no obvious nasties for the survey to spot.

Rescue on Sunday. Various things done to boats on Monday and today. Spring is starting on the river as a few boats are getting launched now onto their moorings.

I have felt quite inactive and even poorly on occasions - it feels as if the side effects of Tarceva - especiually indigestion and general upset digestion - are getting the upper hand. Today I went to the GP and got some help with this and now feel a bit better.

The rest of the week - I cannot sail Lookfar until the insurance is sorted out - but there is lots more boat-fettling to do. Hope to sail the streaker for the first time on Saturday.

Streakers at an Open meeting.
A Holt design - (same designer as the Enterprise and Solo) - double chines - originally (and best) in wood.

10-30 hrs:  Whatever next?
I have bought an early GRP one with a lower sail number than those in the picture - no nice wooden decks to varnish every year - - - . But ready to sail from the Club dinghy park when all the money and paperwork is exchanged. And the wind blows and the sun shines of course.
http://www.streaker-class.org.uk/index.php

I don't know whether I will have the energy to race it - but it is a lot lighter than the Laser and it also has sensible control lines and the mast remains stepped all the time. I miss the fun of a dinghy - so here we go - - . 
I now have lasers for sale!

The  boats used for RYA powerboat course at the sailing club.

19-50: Two days (Monday and Tuesday) on the river driving the RIB and the other club boat with two other members and the instructor. Fun - and I learnt a few things.  We have passed the RYA level 2 powerboat course. I was quite tired by the end but paced myself so that I managed OK. It was very cold with some stong winds and tidal currents. Also proof that the recent dip in energy is improving for the time being.

Prior's Haven, Tynemouth - repair due to the road  having been washed away

19-15 hrs: Tynemouth sailing club launch their boats over the ramp. Winter storms undermined the beach where the person in green wellies is standing - which was dug back into place by a beach party. Storms also removed a lot of the concrete - here being replaced. I put this here for comparison with launching into the river and to show my friends in the North that I still care about what happens. Thanks for the photo.

Lookfar on pontoon today - wind gusting to 45 mph.

21-35 hrs: Only the main sail needs to be put on for it all to happen. Note the sleek shape and that the cockpit is good for grossing out in the sun, as I did this afternooon.

Sloe flowers - 30th March: where we picked actual sloes in the autumn - see 19th September.

15-50 hrs: now all they have to do is to set fruit and grow - and avoid being picked by other people.

11-50 hrs: in Cafe Nero - wonders of OpenZone connectivity and a netbook.

Lookfar snug on her mooring with the furling foresail attached and the deck scrubbed. Much chaos below decks as the main sail still needs to be attached and the gear sorted out. To be done in sunshine - in due course. No actual sailing until the weather is suitable - whatever that means.

The launch - in beautiful weather - at an unearthly hour -

17-10 hrs:  - - and with no problems. Tidied up and sat around in the sun much of the day - but it was tiring as I got up at 7-00!

Lookfar held on the crane so that I can paint the keel before launch.

20-10 hrs> Happiness and exhaustion are boat shaped.

Spent all day doing things to the boat ready for launch tomorrow at 8-30am. Very pleasurable - very tiring - and hot sunshine.
And also explains why I have not written any emails of late. 

- - Back to 'normal' - - three nice days

Friday - antifouling on Lookfar.
Yesterday - hung curtains and did gardening with Aidan in London (and watched frog spawn (which did not do anything of course)). 
Today - rescue duty on the River Deben - light wind so no-one to rescue, but I drove a rib up and down the river and avoided getting cold. Bacon butty for lunch.

Lookfar in winter - the hull cleaned and ready for anti-fouling.
A minnow nestled amongst  grown-up boats.
The one behind has propellers the size and cost of my whole engine - -

16-00 hrs: The hull has since been polished - and is even more ready for the water than shown here. Tomorrow - we have the painting of antifouling.

Today -we have  tidying the flat. This is to make it ready for the annual inspection by the rental agent. Goodness knows what they will make of all the gear lying around but I have moved the ropes and rudder out of the bath and onto the boat. And then - the sailing and the polishing of the topsides and the sailing and the sealing of wood. Mostly sailing I hope.

Nothing annoying here - - - 

Where are all the wigeon gone - - - -

9-40 hrs: I have only walked the river bank a few times lately - and only seen two wigeon - so I assume they have gone off somewhere exotic to lay eggs and generally work hard. There are fewer birds feeding along the river than usual - which I take as a subtle change ready for spring. There are lots of flowers on the sloe bushes - all ready to produce fruit for us to collect later in the year.

And my boat - still uncleaned - but I am going to get it in the water this month - so I can sit on it in the sun. I have not felt like doing it lately. Yesterday - rescue team training at the sailing club - mostly sitting on boats in the sun, giving my opinion about when to drop an anchor and drinking tea - fun.

I have not felt like writing for a while. I don't know if spending a couple of days on the Forums was too much for the system! But also I have been feeling less well for a few weeks and ran into the circular problem of living for the moment. If you live for the day - then there is no tomorrow - so you have to do everything today - and get exhausted and depressed as a result of not being able to do it all. I seem to have anemia as a side effect of Tarceva. It also seems that eating lots of beef (nice) and liver (ugh) does not do the trick because the Tarceva interfers with the development of red blood cells. Planning to do fewer annoying things - we will see - - -

Support Forums

11-00 hrs: I have spent a couple of days behaving as if I were not retired. I was asked a question about something from one of my documents. In answering it I find that various changes had been made to a download from xampp. So - much reading of various Forums and scratching of head. No solution apart from finding and using the older version. I have never really followed Forums and signed up to them, as I have not used Open Source software much. Very easy to get distracted into readng all sorts of stuff - but a new experience.

But - And - it reminded me that, although this stuff is maddening - it also taxes the grey cells. This is what I liked about working and why I do not like retirement - even after 2 1/2 years.

In the home - -

New sewing machine and a pile of curtains

10-00 hrs: The old one gave up the struggle, so I went to Ipswich, found both a car park and the machine shop. Hours of harmless fun creating curtains.

In the wild - -

A kingfisher - sitting in reeds next to a stream alongside the railway

13-50: Seen along the path to the river, by the railway crossing. It stayed put for a long time and only left when I moved a bit near. I have never seen one so close and just sitting. Awesome.

Released into the wild - Joomla! Getting Started docs

 

9-00 hrs:   http://docs.joomla.org/  Under Getting Started. Hope it is not too wild where they are - and that people like them. 

Now all I have to do is re-write them all for the new version. Scary.
