remain very large and are affecting the iridium connection (we need to
prioritise the weather GRIB when we connect). We are frustrated at lack
of progress but all’s fine. The
wind has dropped and this will continue overnight but we cannot yet make
progress into both a strong easterly wind and rough sea. Patience required and it’s
tough. Inbound texts are coming
through (Thanks Tom, we got the dozen or so from you) so please keep sending
them and if anyone wants to look at the seaweed then amateur forecasts are
welcome – we have made enough of our own to know that there is plenty of sport
in this. No personal mails today
for the same reason as the short blog. Today’s
Responses Em – loved your
response. Ta. Clocks forward and yes, lunch is earlier
today. Dave S - ******* windy as
usual, sums it up. Cathy and Emily good to
hear you both had a good run and swim together Weather sounds fab with
you ,enjoy the prosecco xxxx Alex well done on your end of year results
xxxx Tom – Thanks for essay :
) 50 boys wow all sounds pretty daunting! Would love to be there to listen to
your start of year speech to the house! Glad to hear so many people at school
are still interested in the trip! Re. Phone shop, I’m fairly certain that there
is only one Vodafone store in Colchester, I parked in the multi storey on the
far side by wilkinsons walked out across the road and up a long cobbled road,
goes past a little café on the left and a church on the right I think, then
follow it round to the left and Vodafone was a short way up there on the left,
if you look at the store from outside the shop next door to the left sells phone
cases and covers for ipads etc, in there is where I went. Hope that helps : )
Thanks for the quiz question but unfortunately we didn’t receive all the texts
so I just got the end of the question ‘to achieve exactly the number you want?’
sorry….missing you all loads look forward to a beer when I’m back!
xxxx Bye for now
