Sephina of Beaumaris - Day 20 Pigs to the rescue



Day 20  Pigs to the rescue As there is far too much rolling and being thrown about I’ve got some ugly bruises to contend with.  On one of the days I had to stay in bed and dose myself up with Stugeron and paracetamol.  I refused to eat or drink so when I finally surfaced at 6pm I was told I had to have something. The only thing I could face were chewy sweets but there were none left in Week Three’s snack box.  Did this count as an emergency?  The skipper was asleep so I gathered the rest of the crew (all two of them) to have a vote. Fortunately, they saw the situation as an emergency so I went to retrieve the emergency snack box from it’s hiding place. Only two of us knew where it was hidden but as there aren’t many places to hide things on the boat I think there are now three of us who know where it is. (The laundry room.)
I opened the treasure chest and was amazed at the vast array of goodies as we’d obviously saved the best for last. Were there any chewy sweets? Yes, thank you Marks and Spencer, there were four Percy Pig packs. I was saved!
I greedily devoured two packs and Steph had the third. Biting into Percy’s face was a life saver and then when I got to his jelly ears I was in heaven. They just hit the spot.  I looked at the last pack and looked at Steph.  “I may have to keep that incase I can’t eat anything else!” There are some things that come between a mother and her daughter.
Ju, Ship’s Mother
