s/y flying cloud
______________________
sunrise in the english channel. le toy camera est mort; unless it's just sleeping. i opened it up to change the battery and sea water came out. made a funny noise. when did it get wet?
a beautiful, blue day. we are likely to arrive before the pubs close in cowes. the weekend brings departure of flying cloud and for me, the isle of wight music festival. i apparently have a camping ticket et cetera. should be interesting, as i have not attended a festival (as a participant at least) for some time. i think since my embargo of the winnipeg folk fest started some 8 years ago.
cleaning, scrubbing imminent.
the bread experiment finally worked. tom wanted to make bread so we actually did up 2 loaves, and consequently there's more freshly baked bread than we'll be able to eat before we arrive. soon there'll be a bakery. irony at work. these ones are not a brick at all. not even a little bit. the secret: proofing in the oven with a pan of exceedingly hot water underneath on the bottom shelf. oh yes, actually waiting and waiting for the dough to double in size. and actually kneading the stuff for actually fifteen actual minutes.
next.
