Day to day

Dear Readers.  Apologies for the lack of blogs since I joined a week or so ago.  It is a common complaint from my fellow officers on here that when they call home there is little to discuss about the day to day goings on aboard "Daisy".

I could tell you about the hundreds of bus passengers that we had today, some of which had been kitted out with orange baseball caps so that their guide could keep them in tow.  I was amused by the man who had perched his on top of his flat cap.  

The old friend, the weather is always a useful standby, and today was the best day since I joined.  Sunshine and showers but mainly sunshine so that was great, it certainly cheers you up.

The days pass quickly enough for sure, with so little time between ports there is no time to hang about to have our meals and get the planned maintenance done.  Well, we are getting a lot of people from one place to another on time and safely.  Craignure's gangway is now up and running so that has made life a lot easier.  Back home on Wednesday and then back on the water on Tarawa.
