Weekend?

My days "off" I am now a galley slave:

• stripping the remaining upholstery from the v-berth sides
• hauling the drapes to a laundry in Montagne Vert by bike
• swabbing diesel dust off the exterior decks
  
• sponging out the forward bilge daily with no clue where the water comes from

I'd take up the hours with the captain, but that would just get me worse duties I'm sure.

It feels like early summer here - still comfortable outside in t-shirt and shorts. I've never lived somewhere I show up as a barefooted pirate at a Halloween party before!
