The Leaving Party Friday August 26 was a great
success thanks to all who attended to make this such a special evening. Thanks
to Nick and Jo for their words. We hope you all enjoyed the
evening.
Left Lymington at 1000hrs Monday morning lots of
emotion leaving family and friends, Peter and Pat Barton, Clogger, Sue
and Rob Cole at Hurst Castle, Hannifan's and the Mansfield's
forming the escort on the water, thanks to all, we think they were just
making sure we had gone!
Arrived in Alderney after a slow sail and lots of
engine at midnight. Relaxing day Tuesday.
Left Alderney for L'Aberwrac'h Wednesday rnorning.
Had a hard sail during the night and arrived to an
idillic evening at 5.00pm Thursday.
From her lady ship sitting on a blow up shark given
the name Sebastian by nephew Dan hope he doesn't blow up before I finish
he's
just a bit cossed eyed at the moment. Me I managed
to feed alot of fish on the way over in my usual unlady like style but Rob
sounded like a walruss when he
went off. Norman hung o to his chicken
dinner and the fish went hungry. I am sure we will all get our sea legs
soon.
Off to Brest tomorrow (steady Clogger) still
chilling in L'aberwrac'h today 2/09.
