Heaving

The marina is heaving, full of cars and people.

Some folk have taken their boats out, it's against the rules but that's their choice.

Some people are staying on their boats, this means when they use the jetties they cannot abide by the social distancing rules. 

This, of course means that some boaters feel that other people shouldn't be allowed to stay. There can be up to 8 boats to a jetty.

We're lucky our jetty is really short there is only room for one boat either side.

Beano is a bit discombobulated by the crowds and their activities, there are fishermen waving rods around and teens playing football but the thing he hates most is the yoga lady.
I never realised that yoga could be so noisy, so much thrusting and screaming is involved. It's a bit like watching a sex scene from a porno film with one person missing!

There is another yoga practitioner on the marina but he practises on the roof of his boat in almost total silence.

Beano is quite right to be discombobulated (what a great word!) by the yoga lady. Yoga is supposed to be calm and relaxing.

Your description of the yoga lady had me laughing out loud. Every gym I ever went to had a set of young men who were more interested in the drama of pushing weights than in actually pushing the weights. I think the sound effects are supposed to be impressive, but like the porno-yoga, they're just irritating and upset the dog.

We have a woman in our Pilates class who sounds the same! I am enjoying doing my two classes on Zoom from my living room as our teacher mutes everyone during the practice-it’s heaven! Glad you can keep your sense of humour when the hordes descend. Stay safe. Catriona (in a very sunny Scotland)

I always thought yoga was as much a pensive activity as it was an exercise.

I do yoga twice a week and in my Tuesday afternoon yoga I'm the youngest by about 10 years (I'm 61). Most of the ladies fall asleep in relaxation (which is fine), a couple snore, and one routinely farts. I've learned not to giggle now though as I have obviously become much more zen!

That did make me chuckle.

Stew

Y'days lamb was delicious and there is lots left. So today I'm making a stew, I'll use half of the left over lamb and add onion ...
