Johanem - Johanem 29.11.12



Hi all

Everything is fine on the good ship Lollipop, oops I mean Johanem. We are currently about 340 miles into the voyage so only about 2500 miles to go. conditions have varied from strong winds touching 40 knots (v exciting) to now of about 5 knots (v boring!). The weather is damp in patches, mainly under the squalls and so far sunstroke has been a very unlikely threat. Half the crew have showered today so are now even closer to godliness and the other half are counting the minutes till their turn tomorrow. The catering has been upto the usual 5 star standards expected on board. Tony, despite earlier misgivings, is proving quite an adept under chef under my expert eye and may even be allowed to attempt a boiled egg on his own before the voyage is over. Whiskey consumption has declined alarmingly from our average one bottle a day while in Las palmas (mainly on medical advice to combat widespread sore throats or risk thereof) and we all managed a whole day off the booze yesterday! We are trailing a fishing line but so far without success. Maybe tomorrow?

All well with everyone on board and we hope with all our readers, family members, friends and diverse followers.

Ciao, Nick
