42:49 N 15:46 W  Baro 1029 rising, C60C, W13-20 NNW v to N.

Yesterday rice with chick peas and sausages. Wednesday pasta with bacalhau and peas. Finished my tomato and cue, three more boiled eggs left and a bit of chorizo/salami. These are for my elevenses.

I am still having the head winds in various guises between 16 to 24 knots and from NW to N. Cannot complain I am moving. I stopped taking the second lot of antibiotics, the 6 hourly ones, I have no swelling and I feel fine, I even eat without the “prosthetics”. Soon we will be half way home. I have not seen any mermaids at 42, what is there at 44 N?
