Do a Post or Clean the Heads ?

OK it Sunday morning, 9.30am and I can either sit on the computer a bit longer or go clean the aft bathroom.



I am pondering.





Maybe I should just write one more line....


One more line.

I'm downwind of you. PLEASE clean the head, LOL

Head will still be there tomorrow, plus you have a spare.

Mark,
Just don't let your procrastination go this far:

"Maybe I'll blow the mainsheet tomorrow...
