ANZAC Day today so all the shops are closed until lunchtime and morning radio is all about memorial services and the war. Parades were at dawn 'Last Post' at 10.00h. Some people wear poppies but it is very difficult to get hold of them, they are not on sale in supermarkets and shops everywhere like in UK for Armistice Day.
We will be servicing the winches having done most of our of hard store shopping, and collected enough containers for our spare diesel. Chris is busy weather mapping trying to make decision on which day to leave.
We have cleared out cockpit lockers and now have to check stern cabin lockers to see if we have any unnecessary 'bits' and 'pieces' in there
