Spt 3 Both wind & sea are behind us now, & we're travelling well. Its great sport standing on the Port Saloon deck waiting for the big waves, & then ducking for cover. Just spotted a Cape pigeon; it's a devil of a long way out for a small bird (900 miles)
Church Mafeesh, so have to be satisfied with a cigar & biscuits.
