It's summer here - so we are told. Only the one fleece required. A bit like their facilities - the showers are either cold or freezing. The wind threaten to go SE F8 for our return south - no suprises there then. Mean while we are enjoying the Tall Ships. Lots to see, and friends to make. Good to see Rona II from the Hamble here.
We had dinner on HMS Trincomalee sat night. She is awesome - fully refitted, copper bottomed, afloat, and ready for sea. It's fantastic to stand on an 1817 frigate, as Nelson would have done, and to feel the decks move beneath you.
Wifi - all marinas advertise it. Sadly they dont have it! Internet cafes? They don't exist either. I'm now sitting in a McDonalds (1st time ever!!!!) using their McCloud.
We're hoping to start heading south tomorrow, so we may see you before we up-date this again.
Apparently we are having a party in Portsmouth Sailing Club on the 21st Aug to say good bye and head south for the sun and adventures new. See you there.
