Suspect we might just take a stroll along the front to check out entries for this year's ARC. Missing the start by one day though :/

I could get used to the weather here...

No idea how tempting that is, Claymore. Suspect that there is a queue of one in front of me. Sheena was heard discussing out loud to no-one in particular the timescales of getting Aja further south and whether we would pay to be in the ARC or one of the 100 or so who are anchored outside the marina and apparently just tag along....

The problem with an Atlantic crossing is getting the boat back to Europe.

This paid a significant part in our eventually deciding not to cross to the Caribbean.

The vast sum of money we left for you at Peter's caff in Horta had nothing to do with it then? As I recall, that was the only reason you poked yer snout into the Atlantic.

Aye, ten euro wiz why we took the 1,000 mile detour on the way home right enough.
