(Yesterday)
No change, still too far to motor and no wind for
sailing. Creeping ever closer to Guadeloupe (worried the rowers might be
gaining!) and hoping for another 24 hours of sailing to bring us within fuel
range.
Found 2 Mars bars at the bottom of the fridge after
4 days without chocolate - a deep joy descended on the boat (good job it was
2!)
You can tell how slowly we've been going as one
night watch Murray composed (in his head) an ode to his Christmas
cake.
Watch this space for "An Ode to Stollen" due out on
December 23rd.
(Today)
Have been sailing all night and into the day, hope
to continue for a few more hours to keep us on
target.
