hello all,
first of all two birthdays, happry birthday tommy b, whos the ripe old
age of 21 today and second our old girl gertha is the ripe old age of 2.
we are currently over 30 hours into the crossing and what a uneventful
30 they have been..... we have only seen two whales and caught a 25 lb
ish fish which is nick named the dolphin out here, but dont worry its
not flipper.. currently in the oven cooking, should be some good eating.
Hope all are well who are reading todays blog. we are all settling into
the random shift patterns and sleeping arrangements. The sailing has
been good so far and it has been a scorching day, the sea temperature
was 30 degrees C. we look like we are in for a good sunset tonight
fingers crossed as they have been fair but not amazing yet..
suspected outbreak of prickly heat on our girl kate, left foot measuring
1 inch by half an inch, not opperable yet..
lucy says thankyou hannah for the email and will reply soon.
skip is still smug that we only brought a line and lure, no fancy gear!
goodnight all, Ian and the Gertha Crew
