As we approach 56 degrees North, the wind has turned to the South, the skies
have cleared and we are enjoying champaign sailing. Regret none of the
bubbly stuff onboard to celebrate, but a wee tot of rum with dinner has done
wonders for moral - witness the wide grins. The high pressure has not been
too unkind to us (yet) as we seemed to glide through to calms with 4kts of
boat speed in 4 kts of wind.

Glad to see all is well. I missed keeping track of your whilst I was in Edinburgh at the weekend but come back to find you way out in the ocean but alongside Edinburgh. I will try and find a glass of the bubbly and celebrate the great progress. Enjoy the evening sun. Caroline (Grace's friend) :-)

It all seems plain sailing to me!! Good to see you with smiles on your face enjoying the sun. There I was thinking you would be battling horrendous weather. Anyway, stay clear of those bobbing mosquitoes - they are apt to explode! Sail well and make wise decisions. Gill:)
