Sorry, I have several things to post and will in the next 24 hours. However, this photo is from Holy Island off the beautiful Northumbrian Coast – the area of my birth. This simply is the most beautiful place to be. We sailed over 2 night from Lossiemouth down past Peterhead, Aberdeen, the Firth of Forth, past Eyemouth and Berwick for a sunrise entry into the stunning natural Harbor at Holy Island (Lindisfarne). This photo is of our departure this morning – 5.00am away at high water, bound for Newcastle – the city of my birth! All is good – not so on the trip down from Lossiemouth – Thunder, driving rain, winds, and then an hour and a half battling an errant head sail which was nearly disastrous! Sitting writing this as we sail gently by!
Pip pip,
