Last night the game of liar dice proved:
•       Never trust Jan
•       Lesley didn’t trust Phil
•       Sarah is not as innocent as she looks
•       Nick is quick to lose his chips
•       And Jim is the best liar

After a lie in, long breakfast and showers, the hangovers lifted.

We explored Marstrand and the historic castle where prisoners were sent to do heavy labour. Back to the boat after ice creams and shopping …. More caviar and more Gin for Jan.
Humm, where can we go today. There must be a route through all those islands that a 21m mast can navigate. We think we have found one. But if the next bridge is lower, it’s a long way back to Marstrand. Wait for the blog tomorrow.

Wind 20 to 26 knots spinnaker reaching the whole way at 9 to 10 knots. 2 broaches, 1 caught on Jim’s camera…. Bang … Splosh….what was that? … Jim’s camera didn’t float and with the kite up that was the end of the evidence.

Stopped for the night 30 miles along a 45 mile route in a tiny creek watching the sunset. A feast is being concocted by Lesley and Sarah from the interesting selection of supplies…. It was delicious

Jan tells us Gordon Brown has resigned …. Hooray … but what does that mean ???
Fortunately there are no newspapers or TV here.



PS.  See photos to win a bottle of wine.
