Wahoo a go-go

89 miles to go to Bermuda, the engine's on and the
wind is on the nose, so not much chance of snoozing. Back on a starboard tack,
so abit difficult for some of us to sleep. I've (Beth) have already managed to
fall out of my bunk a couple of times.
There's been one other ship on the AIS and the only
other thing we've seen are loads of Jellyfish and a crazy moon.
We have been having a food frenzy, Yesterday
morning, whilst Kelly was asleep Stuart made spicy beans on toast (Kelly hates
spices nearly as much as Stuart does cheese), he used the bread that Eileen had
made, I think it was a tad unfair he likened it to an industrial breezeblock.
Eileen is one determined chick though and is back in the galley trying for the
third time to perfect her loaf, Then Kelly caught another massive Wahoo,
the second one in 2 days !! It was soooo big that Stuart had to help pull
it in, she then filleted it and made a scrummy lunch with noodles and a few
other random tinned ingredients. As the fillets were massive we weren't all that
hungry, but still managed to scoff the fish fingers with dip and chocolate cake
and custard that Stuart made for dinner.
Next day - Just had a lunch of rice and fish !! No
spicy beans on toast today, as I think we were abit scared on cracking a tooth
on the bread.
The only thing that happened other than eating was
that Joyce got hit in the face by a flying fish, we found the missing cereal
bars and we're all doing involuntary pilates in order to stay in berths or
balance.
Next update in Bermuda
