Today is our shipmates birthday, Alan is 70!! It was a little weird wishing
someone happy birthday at 4am in the morning as I came on watch in the
middle of the Atlantic. I think we have a cake and will have bacon
butties for lunch, I'm planning in making pizza for tea, wish me luck it's
a bumpy ride today. Alan doesn't normally do much for his birthday but
crossing the Atlantic will certainly make this memorable!
Over the last 24
hours the wind has picked up and we are making good time, we have covered a
whopping 164 miles! So progress continues to be excellent.
The fish have
conspired to avoid being eaten, Richard continues to think up ways to catch them
and they seem to be out thinking him, i'll let you know if he manages to out
wit them.
Spelling still a disappointment for my English teacher,
