Shake Rattle and Roll some more .
Hi Folks,
As described in the title we have been rolling in
swells coming from a different direction to the wind all night and day ! the
wind died down to 6 to 10 knts this morning just as we reached the 5 deg South
marker and turned towards the Marquises , we had 2100 nm to go this morning
nearly one third through the trip .
I am ti Toche today , started with toast and our
usual cockpit discussion , the mention of poo pooing came up , Rob who had been
poo pooed about his coat hanger by an unknown crew member ( female )
and it uses , to date it has cleaned out drain holes, held up water bottles
filling at the watermaker and has even been used for cleaning Rob's ears out !
as its a regular occurrence on this vessel we have decided to keep a
record of every poo poo voiced in the cockpit to a male brill idea which may
sound a bit silly at the time but has been found to be useful .
We are also running low on extra virgin olive oil
awe don't mind though Robs hearing is improving as Ruth pours copious amounts
down his lug holes every night , the cooks keep eyeing up his ears with a view
to frying them with a little garlic if we run out of fish or meat , Robs fishing
efforts have increased .
Last but not least I found a choc cake mix and have
made an attempt to bake it the results should be known shortly , if its a duffer
I'm going to be poor pooed from here to the Marquises ..
For the record a further update on the "Snicker
Nicker incident " I ate two out of the packet ! woe is me ... but have just
admitted it to the crew , they looked real lonely all five of them in the packet
.
"Ruths Corner"
We are in the Pacific Zzzzzzzzz no more books left
to read ...
That's all for now from the floating Alton towers
fun ride centre of the pacific
