This is perhaps the first civilised day we have had. We can read, clean up the boat, put the fishing line out, check the sheets are not chaffing all around the boat, take pictures and video... the sea is benign and the winds are fair - keeping to a steady 6.2kts average speed.

Pete is threatening to make spaghetti surprise with....  corn beef ! or alternatively trying to get me to give up a good bottle of red wine for a lamb stew - no way.

The list of minor repairs has had the aft cabin wardrobe door added to it - again. This time the enormous cruising chute leaped of my bed and crashed through the door with no provocation whatever.
