Tuesday 7th July - Puldoran to Tobermory

Puldoran - Tobermory - 26 miles

Arrived 10:30 at Tobermory and got a mooring near the pontoons. Went ashore for a gorgeous hot shower after a brief sleep. Cafe Fish all booked for tonight so booked for Wednesday night.
Visited Dermots favourite hardware shop and bought a few screws and a hot water bottle!!
Decided to buy food for dinner on board but had lunch at the pub next to the marina - wonderful scallops in garlic and side salad and D enjoyed his Guinness :-) sat in lovely sunshine. Dermot found the source of the leak and fixed it!!!!
Beautiful evening but winds changed to North /NE and all boats were getting tossed around and I was awoken at 2:30 by all the movement and noise.  Dermot rigged a bed for me in the centre which is supposedly more stable 😂😂but I did get a few hours sleep but was v glad to get off. We went for a walk to the smokehouse and explored the back lanes down to the marina.
Dinner at Cafe  Fish was brilliant.  Moules followed by sole stuffed with crab meat  and Halibut in lemon and caper butter followed by ice cream berries and chocolate  for me.😊a swift drink at the Mish Nish completed the night.
