Another sunny, windy day on the Good Ship Bumblebee.
Last night had Tim, King and I popping our heads out of each hull and the centre
pod like those mongoose relatives who are ordered out to do sentry duty. The
boat managed an involuntary gybe after surfing at 16 kts which was not
wise. It brought the 3 of us on deck as if we were jet propelled. All was
brought back under control with a minimum of words and we scurried back to our
respective burrows. Meerkat Manor Afloat..'' Will Tim be able to tie a reef knot
properly before we reach Barbados? Can Julia find King's supply of Twix's before
he eats them all? How much longer can Tiger sit on a bean bag, reading, without
losing the use of his legs? Will King really be able to eat all those baked
beans before the tins go rusty? '' We may never know!
