The Flag, the Ferry, the
Berlingo.
About to head off in search of the new Glen Sannox ferry

@Shrink Proof stunning photo - thank you for sharing!

@Archev I hope you have a wonderful day!

 

[Archev]

I’m now at Claonaig waiting for the ferry to Lochranza on the Isle of Arran. I am fervently hoping the handbrake gods are with me today so that I might comply with the signage

All I have to sustain life and limb on this impending maritime adventure :-

Other than a box of protein flapjacks, a pack of beef jerky and two outsized choccy bars that is.

 

[Archev]

One does like one’s exclusive ferry to be punctual

Glad you didn't put the Banana, where the Butty, is.

I hastily deleted that pic just before I hit the send button

I’m in Brodick for the next hour. Come over quick and I buy you a slice of this cinnamon cake and a coffee.

Is the CPS charger in Brodick harbour still free? (It was last time I was on Arran, 1st Nov 2023).

Oh I don’t know but I’ll go have a look

Oh I don’t know but I’ll go have a look

Yep free , gratis nada to use

And it’s broken

Yep free , gratis nada to use

And it’s broken

Just phoned CPS and the Neil tells me it’s been switched off pending a part being sent for it

Just my luck - I found the holy grail
And it’s knackered.

Glen Sannox on all her glory

Beautiful smooth, quiet ship except for the bongs that precede safety and general announcements- not a chance of missing that (it’s to be hoped one doesn’t suffer incontinece issues though). However the announcements themselves I found very difficult to tune in to.
The restaurant is very good. The chicken tikka masala was very good.

Should be used to "bongs" by now.

Aye the ZS was king bonger - the Five didn’t bong much at all - the Berlingo bongs in French or Portuguese or something so has the advantage that I don’t understand what it’s on about

Anyone use the Arnold Clarke chargers ?
The Citroen sales guy told me they were the greatest thing since bread was baked.
I’ve just encountered them for the first time and I’m so totally unimpressed that I’ve struggled round to a proper CPS unit to get some power.
Disgusted !!!

Only a few years, supposedly, before there will be electric ferries for you to go play on.

my exact location is ///searcher.gullible.reputable

Couldn't resist searching on what3words.

Apparently there are three locations in the world that use those 3words:
"near Brodick, North Ayrshire"
"near Zouerte, Tiris Zemmour"
"near Lichinga, Niassa"

No idea at all about where in the world the second and third ones are!

 

[Susanna]

That’s weird - I only get the one where @Archev was. Other places with a slight difference in the words though. Each what3words is supposed to be unique??
