We've made it as far as Holyhead

So in our travel to warmer climates in the south we
find ourselves now further north, but at least we are a little bit further west
than when we started.
Things were going well, 10 knots was becoming the
normal speed, so were around Carmel head in good time, and flying across
Holyhead bay, passing out into the Irish sea, planning to tack back in and spend
the night at Porth Dinllaen.
When the wind hit 30 knots, with the barometer
dropping like a stone, it was back to Holyhead.
It did give us a good test of all the stowing, and
only a bunch of bananas, and the microwave dish flew across the boat.
So to summarise, today it was Proper
windy, Proper wavy, Proper full on sailing, Proper wet, and Proper fun (and for
Paul the Assie Proper cold too)
