Yes and no. Suffering a bit of climate shock - straight back to 60mph winds and worrying about the boat on the mooring. Good to be back on Seil with friends, pub etc though.

As they say in Ireland.
"Niel ain chin thaun le te chin taun fein" spelling may not be correct but it means, "There is no fireside like your own fireside".
Probably safer down the atlantic than here giving recent wind speeds!
Are you going to do a blog on the cruise?

The whole experience was a bit full-on, and I didn't make any notes. If you are lucky? I will ramble on with some general impressions at some point though.

Still coming to terms with the overall lunatic quality of the experience.
Realised that when I casually remarked to someone down the pub that the kangaroo blew off the mantlepiece in a squall.
