We are now safely tied up in Guadeloupe and our friends from the ARC Finish Line - Brigitte and Hakim from Erpel - are here.  We will be staying at least a week.  The next stop will be Antigua and we want to soak up some French culture (food) and stock up before moving on.  Raymarine are also due to be fixing stuff in Antigua and we don't yet know when the relevant kit will be there.

Anyway, as I always say - every picture tells a story and so here's a few!

Tom pokes his nose in

Okay – it was not an international incident with the trawlers.  Whilst walking about in St Pierre, he walked into a sign which was cunningly disguised as a sign – just finishing at nose height.  The writing on the sign was proud and now Tom sports the letters SOG on his nose.  (No, not really), but there’s three big gouges and it will take some time to heal. In the meantime he’s a source of merriment wherever we go!
