A very short one today

A very short blog from me today as Rob's going to say a few words.
Had another crackin' days sail with the "Sausage" doing it's stuff . It gone from being the naughty Pepperami (spelling?) "a bit of an animal" to being a well behaved, the majority of the time, Westlers Hot Dog !!
 
We've managed to average over 7 knots for 24 hours now so hopefully we might have put some more miles on Rebel T
We were going about our stuff this morning when Simons' (Gertha 4) voice boomed out of the radio asking for us which was nice and meant he was within 30 or so miles. So the usual banter ensued, and it was nice to hear a familiar voice on the radio after all this time.
The wind, as predicted has got up this evening, so the "Hot Dog's" been put to bed and we're down to our smallest sail reefed in (made smaller still) but still making reasonable progress, if slightly in the wrong direction but it shouldn't cause to many problems.
I'll sign off now, and thanks for reading.
 
To my little mate in Hampton.........Get well soon Chuck. Love ya.
