Good Evening to you all,
As you can see we are starting our final decent with 704 miles to go and with this wind which is set to continue if not improve - this is all good news, even for Jan who will have to start looking for work instead of teasing ed and I that he is in no hurry unlike us!!
We have been making some good speed over the last 24hrs in lumpy seas, these seas are also set to continue, beggars cant be choosers!
Ed and I will be turfed overboard in Nelsons Harbour, Antigua where our mini adventure will begin, this story will be told later.
I made a suggestion to the captain that we had our main meal at lunchtime rather than in the evening when some folk are sleeping, this worked well and the 'cook your own rib eye was enjoyed by all'.
We have plenty of food left but worryingly we are down to our last potato and no longer have onions which could cause all kinds of problems!!
Apart from that there is not too much report, yesterday there were many sail changes but today there were none. No boats so far either, maybe we will see one tonight.
We have been putting back our clocks buy 20 mins most days so we are almost on Caribbean time and its certainly warmer than the UK
