Mike, Dominic and PVR arrived in Gib and had productive morning loading stores, apparenly Morrisons is very attractive, and we have the Sat phone up and running. Had a nice light wind sail in teh bay and were treated to a great display from teh dolphins. Winds still looking light so have loaded extra diesel and aim to set off tomorrow round 9 after a gentle eveing in the town!
