The Tidey Family again came to the rescue with this very special birthday cake but alas in my thoughtless rush to get going I forgot to acquire the requisite number of candles. Not to disappoint them I rummaged around in the glory box and came up with this source which put out the correct number of candelas and as you can see being carbon neutral should contribute, in its own small way, toward saving the planet; mind you I almost blew a fuse attempting to blow it out when I found a quick whisk on the wires sufficed.
We are still a little North of the preferred track but seem to be skirting the outer fringes of that High so by tomorrow we will finally set course for home. I must add though that the conditions are really quite pleasant if a trifle on the quiet side.
