We are away on Wednesday for a few weeks, heading North to Shetland if the wind gods are kind, then maybe Norway. There will be a blog HERE.

The wind gods are evil bar stewards - it's looking like northerlies and north-easterlies for the next week . . . another sojourn in Tobermory? Faroes?

Northerlies, north easterlies....................

Why not nip through the Caley Canal.
You would then be better placed when the wind does change.

Good luck

Not sure you are right there . . . if we go through the canal and it goes NW we are close hauled or worse. If we manage to make Cape Wrath and it goes NW we are on a beam reach or better . . .

(And anyway we have just been on the canal. Had a stinkpot from Laggan for three days with my Dad last week. Met Piotaskipper in Fort Augustus).

Calling your old Dad a Stinkpot from Laggan is most disrespectful and I believe you owe him an apology you termite.

Surely the 'termite' slur should be reserved for those who bore in posts.

Thats a fair point Bill. Personally I am at the stage where I feel I can write anything at all about Nick as he never responds. I must have upset the bandy-legged periwinkle at some stage but cannot think how or when.

Termite - Bore. That's Nick. :D
