Gave Tony a beard trim and sorted out some Spanish stuff and did some messages and emails this morning.
After lunch we walked a mile to the bus stop £8.40 2 returns for half hour ride to the bus depot . Just outside the modern building which is also the ferry to the Isle of Wight terminal, was the large HMS Warrior and the Emirates Spinnaker Tower.
Walked along a little bit and came to a seafood stall, cockles, mussels , whelks and crayfish tails....ummmmmm 🤔 yep had the crayfish £3.50 a pottle.
Went into the old Historic Dockyard, different museums, Marie Rose museum, HMS Victory, Nelson's famous ship and the brand new aircraft carrier HMS Elizabeth, not open to the public yet.
Captains cabin
Not where you want to be .....the brig 
When we came out we had a cleansing ale in the Ship Ansen, a lovely old Tudor pub, it was showing the highlights of the West Ham match and Tony got talking to a guy watching it who was also a fan. He and his wife were from Jersey Island, he is ex British Marines and was hoping to get on the new aircraft carrier tomorrow.
Bus back to Port Solent, yehhhh we remembered where to get off and walked the mile back to Bessie. Cooked chicken madras for dinner, it was yummy.
Good skype with Lesley great to catch up on her trip, looking good and had a fantastic time. Good to see Christine there both just out for their morning walk, you go girls 😎
Had a good chat with Pat, she had a win at bingo so is having a lovely pamper session at the city spa that she and I went to 3 years ago. Enjoy your well deserved pamper big sis xox.
