Had our first real sqall today , we could see it
coming so we took precautions , reefed everything and waited , we were in need
of of some wind but 25knts is the upper end of comfortable for us , we watched
in horror as the wind speed reached 40knts , then 50 , then 60 ..... then....
71knts , there was thunder , lightening , but we were ok, and when we came out
the other side of the squall we had a steady 20-25knts for the rest of the day,
we then had a great days sail a steady 8knts , then this afternoon
the shout went up " whales " we had three large whales of which two "
breached " right out of the water . just spectacular ,
but....
this evening is our halfway party , with a sort of
christmas theme , we had nibbles and a small glass ( plastic) of wine and
then a luxury fish pie( the boys do know their fishing rights are curtailed
unless they eat the stuff!) and then a full on christmas pudding and cream , boy
are we stuffed now !
so we are putting the boat to bed ready for the
nightand then more dvd.s ..... heaven....
 The Boy,s ,
Ray , Mark , Robbie and Richard , all in the christmas spirit
