Change of Address

Chaguaramus

13th April 2008

This is just to say to all readers that my blog provider, 'mailasail' has changed our address to http://blog.mailasail.com/nordlys. This has been coming up automatically if you put the old address in but may not do so in the future. Another way of getting to the site is to go to the home page of Mailasail, www.mailasail.com and click on webdiaries and then select Nordlys or any other boat on the list that you may wish to read about for any reason.

Tomorrow we leave for the final sail of the season which is the eighty miles up to Prickly Bay, Grenada. We are due for 18 knots with the sheets just eased. Watch this space!
