Just about at the S tip of India... After a slow but very lovely night, it's been a bit frustrating since 3am, with a bit of sea and reasonable wind and current... Unfortunately all from right where we want to get to, naturally!
Oh well, sun's still shining and we're plodding on.
On a more sombre note, I be thinking of everyone gathering in Sutton Veny to remember Mike about now...Particularly June and the children, of course.
I know that the same church and pub will also bring back memories of another life cut too-short 25 years ago. You may blub again, as much as we all did then... And that, I think, is a good sign? Of lives well-lived, of memories and bonds which last forever.
