Apologies for the very long silence but normal service should now be resumed.  Once I have got the photographs sorted out.  For now the very quick story is:

Mike had hernia repair four weeks ago.  Very happy with both surgeon and hospital but it was still extremely painful and restricting for ten days or so.  Signed off now as fit for gentle sea duties.

Carol been in UK for two weeks visiting family.

Liz arrived and will be with us for the island hop down to Trinidad where we will be going earlier than expected in order to get our Indian visas because there will not be time when we get back to UK.  Once we have the visas we head back up to Grenada and a bit more island hopping with George and Jack Kendall (next door neighbours teenagers) then back to Trinidad and leave the yacht for the summer.

Just waiting for the boat to deliver our laundry back then we will go back out to the anchorage overnight and leave early tomorrow for a bay on the south of the island.  Shortish sail just to remind ourselves what to do.
