Happy birthday to you,
happy birthday to you,
Happy birthday to Greg....
Happy birthday to you...
And as a birthday treat we had birthday pancakes... yay... everyones a winner.
plus the sun has come out the wind is nice, its a warm pleasant day.
 
Last night on my watch, (Alexa) i saw the worlds smallest dolphins, some might call them porpoises, but even as porpoises they were small, could almost have just been big fish but they came to play with the boat so they must have been just little doilphins... I have a new theory about dolphins, and all this being playful stuff, and i have decided that actually, they are wild animals, and they must get threatened when strange objects such as boats come through they're territory, so are they playful or is all the jumping around and swimming alongside the boat merely a show of bravardo, and they are actually escorting the boats away from their home??!! 
I also saw the first batch of flying fish last night, so im quite excited about spotting some more...  hmmm other than that nothing to report i dont think just had pancakes, now gonna chill.
 
Hazy day today with light winds We almost had some rain last night but each time it just missed us. Our next serious rain day is Tuesday with a front coming through.
Alexa's pancakes were ............ yum yum, all gone now!
 
Wors sausage with bacon and lentils for supper tonight!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
