After another front past us by, we got out onto the Solent today, 2 reefs down in a blustery wind. I was a happy chick as a result, as we were comfortable and not fighting the conditions too much! Watched some hectic racing going on with the young chaps who are soooo enthusiastic and take it equally seriously. posting a couple of photos for interest. Headlines over the weekend was Summer cancelled till September lets hope that isn't the case!!! Had a great supper at The Jolly with Clare and William on Friday night was good to see them and catch up. Mellos II is back, but poorly with something split allowing water in...... not so good! Be in touch again soon. cheers for now. xx

Just posting this photo for fun. Berthing at this bril yard is the fact that it is a working boatyard, and definitely not a marina!! Boats get moved all over the place, and if you are away for too long, coming back to where you thought you left your boat has it's challenges! Not only that, the regular's get snugged in somewhere and then need to go out for a sail so there is another shuffle about....... it's great we all get involved!! The rather lovely racing classic that is being moved back alongside has just come out of a 30 month refit and is hoping to get away for the Antigua Classic week.

Thought I would post another picture of the yachts out yesterday. We are gale bound yet again, waiting for this next front to pass us by. Looking at the Met news early today, we could see the rather large low heading towards us. In places of the UK they are talking about getting 3 months rain over this weekend! Unbelievable!!! it just has to cheer up soon.
Thankfully Mellos II is back safe and sound, we will be catching up with them tomorrow eve at The Jolly, but it's good to know they are back before the blow, we saw Len back also yesterday, I think several folk have cut short their sailing - such a shame. Well I'm off for a little retail therapy..... it always helps! bye for now. xx
