So after a short 24 hrs in Honfluer – a seriously pretty place – rather touristy, but what am I – we will set out on this evening’s high water to cross back to the UK (it’s about 6 miles through the lock and down the Seine out to Le Havre) – heading to Southampton (may be via Chichester). We’re a bit short handed for this – only 4 of us – so the watches will be a little longer and the rest a little shorter! Winds seem a little light for the journey – but hopefully enough to sail with a full sail plan and get 6 plus knots out of her. Only about 6 hours of darkness – so a short night! More later.Pip pip, N


Loving reading your blog, Nick.
However, I must admit to muttering ‘take care, Nick’ at the end of almost every paragraph. I’m glad it’s me that’s the wimp and not you.
Take care!
Love and God bless, Theresa x

T, I promise, great care will be taken and I am in good hands. I’m only lead watch tonight – so not skippering! Looks like the weather will be pretty good – but you never know. Love to all, thanks for the support and see you up in the NE soon. Nxxx

Short handed – have you driven people away already? Short nights? Come off it – you’re in the south – they don’t know what short nights are. Just make sure you sleep at the right times. It is not called “watch” for nothing!
