The wind man has deserted us, and the rest of the
fleet it would appear. Not a very nice night with limited visibility at times
and rain or drizzle. We were somewhat startled by a stowaway on board but after
the initial shock realised it was just Rob who'd been asleep for the last 9
hours. He did, to his credit get up to do the hated night watch, just as the sun
came up and daylight dawned. But after a couple of hours it was all too much and
our stowaway returned to his quilt lined hidey hole in the bow
cabin!
The sun did make an appearance about mid morning
which though initially was lovely then brought the horrors of Pete in his
shorts. It could have been worse though, the crew of Ruby who were within sight
informed us that none of their crew were wearing anything except boots and
grease !
No wonder we've had no Dolphin
visitors...
We appear to be sailing in the company of Ruby,
Gold Rush and Ebenezer, though can only actually see Ruby.
We did have one visitor this morning as a swallow
flew along with us for some way. It was alone, and it made me quite sad to think
of it doing the journey on it's own.
Sea not too rough, could just do with a few more
knots of wind and all would be well with the world.
Take care out there, whoever you may
be....
