Namaste

What a feast! I think we will be eating the
left overs for dinner and tomorrows lunch!
Chloe created some lovely place settings with the
buddha eyes, the date and the menu on the back. I was hoping the wear the
yachting jacket, but it was just too hot!
Over lunch, we happened to draw alongside and then
overtake an Oyster 49 - the first sailing boat that either of us have seen in
4-5 days. We had some radio banter over VHF with them; they
soon switched on their motor and shot away! They are in a division
below us so are doing well, but that could be down to their motoring. All
time spend motoring is declared at the end. The ARC are clever though and
dont tell you what the punishment is until the end of the race. We have
had to motor twice now, once for just 15 mins, sadly the second was a longer,
approx 7hrs, but todays winds have been steadier.
We have a little game for you...one which we have
tried and come up with some decent answers.
Using as many letters as possible, but with out
duplication, what can you make with:
HALFWAY FOR NAMASTE (17 letters)
Answers must be relevant and there is a time limit
of 5 minutes.
Wish us good winds!
Mens sana in corpore sano.
Namaste
