All has settled down,after 3 days of 30 knot winds
and 2-3 metre waves all is calm.At least is was until this morning when I woke
up to find water crashing over the stern,fortunately it was just David ,Ray and
Andy having a wash!
Not alot to report really everyone is happy and
well fed at the moment,I must admit when working out the provisioning I had
forgotten quite how much David eats as Andy said,'I bet he does some damage to a
fridge ,when he gets back from a night out with the boys'.
We haven't seen a great deal of sea life,though I
found a dead flying fish on the floor of the heads,not a good
combination.
I'm scraping round for news here.Ray's
pregnant,no.David has tan lines on his legs,Ray has tan lines round his tummy
and where I have tan lines is nobodies business.
Somehow or the other the days just seem to
pass,sleeping,sunbathing,cooking,knitting(Ali),reading, trying to work out our
position using the sextant,(Andy and Ray) and occasionally having to
reconfigure the sails.
Hope everyone is well and enjoying the build up to
Christmas,I can't say I miss the shopping ,but I may have the crew singing
carols before the end of our journey.
Love to you all
