The Walters
Not much went on today, but I wanted to clear up something that I’d written previously.
Back in May - still locked down in the marina at Agios Nikolaos, I’d written a diary entry describing our neighbours on B pontoon.
At that stage I was on friendly nods, but far from close terms with a couple from Chesterfield, Carl and Jenny.
Having spent the best part of the last week back and forth sundowning on each other’s boats, we’ve really warmed to them. I am only sorry that I hadn’t spent the time, or been more social to have made firmer friends before.
They’re so much more than my previous description:
‘A fat ex-copper, and a wife with some big boobs....’ which, whilst possibly anatomically correct, showed more about the sort of person I am than actually describing them.
They’re a generous, fun, chatty, warm couple who laugh easily, who we’ve found ourselves opening up to more than usual. I hope our new found friendship can continue and make the upcoming winter in the marina a little more tolerable.
...and that picture is their boat by the way.
