Well , it is time to prepare and get ready for the next part of the trip , Horta to Falmouth , I will be leaving here at 0830 am on the 4th July , I do apolagise for the lack of blogs since i have been here but with having to sort it all out without crew has taken a tad longer than I expected , I hope you have all been enjoying the podcasts ( link in my last post ) and have had a good laugh at my expense . Last night I had a very enjoyable dinner with the Ocean Cruising Club , and met some new friends and also some old faces , the wine flowed and we all had a bit more than we should have , but hey that's what life is all about , the boat is stocked with food and water and I have 120 lts Diesal so if its light have 4/5 days motoring , the breeze looks good for the first week but then it turns into easterlies according to the gribs

Mick,
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear about the loss of Simo - but glad you're OK.
Hopefully we'll bump into you (rather more gently) when we get to the UK.
Cheers!
