At 23.30 last night, we decided to put a reef in the
mainsail as the wind was picking up. Ian and I have decided that if we are
putting in a reef, that we will go straight to the second one and miss the first
altogether. It's working well. We are getting more slick with sail evolutions as
well.
Last night as I settled for my night watch with a coffee
in hand, a flying fish landed on deck. I had to go and help it get off the boat.
I hope it's okay!
We have started reading a lot. Ian has finished four
Inspector Rebus books plus a bit of Tom Cunliffe's Yachtmaster book, plus a bit
of 'The God Dillusion' by Richard Dawkins. Heavy going but it is a book on loan
from his Nain. I've managed 'On Bonfires, Butlins and Being Welsh' a recent book
by Jos Simons on growing up in Pwllheli and now I'm on 'A Small Town in Germany'
by John Le Carre.
