Fenella

A more than usually disturbed night with a wrap
leading to a 0230 sail change just as most of us were sleeping off yet more
great food. To our menu we have now added tuna, sashimi, salad and marinaded
steaks, claimed by Tim although as he was woken from his slumbers to act merely
as the electric reel this could be challenged. Not only did I set Tim's line and
gaff the beast but with consummate skill made my fish spit the hook when I
realised that we did not need two fish. How's that for environmental awareness.
Fenella is, of course, a dry ship as you could
hardly call the midday can of Eurofizz a beer, more a soft drink. Unfortunately
at sunset we each have to have a glass of grog merely to uphold the
traditions of Nelson's Navy so this may be forgiven. Equally understandable is
the bottle of wine we have to compliment our evening repast so, all in all, a
dry ship.
"Who's been tidying up again ?" complained the
Skipper "I can't find anything". It was not Richard, he was on
watch.
