Excellence - Day 3 Tuesday 25



What are we most enjoying missing?
A month to xmas & no advertising or jingles. Slade is silent...
No credit crisis scaremongering. No worries about future pension payments. No American politics.
Bliss.
No walking the dog ( David), who has however turned his hand to cooking, but only on the condition that you don't tell Janice..
Vanessa won 'chef of the day' for Monday Roast.
 
Hot sun so kit coming off as relaxation settles in at 4.5 K with genaker alone. Still tweaking to do to get the best out of the gentle NE breezes. Heading for Cape Verde in search of the traditional trade winds.Had to motor through a calm night so need more wind...careful what we wish for
Still a dozen yachts within sight at night.
 
Skip actually taking a watch now as the crew become familiar with the workings of the boat.So Neil is catching up on his kip after taking a perfect sunrise shot to be hung in the Ferry Boat Inn later. Steve still losing to the skip at Liar dice, which is such a shame as it is his game(currently 2 bottles of wine and 2 pints of beer down).
Lunch beckons
All well
Cheers (1 glass per day)
