Its been a mixed day today with everything from 2 to 20 knots of wind, and a lot of rain, but there hasn't been any lightning or heavy wind with the rain. The wind is coming from the SW at about 15 knots at the moment, so I am sailing close hauled, I've got a full main and staysail up and its quite comfy, though much more and I will reef. One of the models said SW for a while, but I wasn't expecting it, It's forecast to back more to the S then SE. I got some sleep last night, but had a bit of trouble nodding off at first, plus the wind came up at 1am, so I was busy putting sails up for a while, I have pretty much been sailing since then. Not much else to say, everything is going OK, it was just a rainy overcast sort of a day,
