Title: 36 09n 30 08w

Hi Everybody,
 
Position 36 09n 30 08w  COG  64  SOG 7.4kts  Wind 26kts Sea Rough.
Made good progress yesterday despite being well reefed. Bit rough through the night with squalls and heavy showers but still making progress. Less than 250nm to go.
 
Pam and all  Wont need a shower today had three last night!! Sea confused and wind at 30-36 kt. A large container ship passed us last night and we used radar to see her as her lights kept disappearing over horizon(waves/swell) Thanks David for info the slight hotch we have is that Sunday 14 is actually 26 as you can see above.  That makes tues 26 actually 38? I was already thinking of coopting Danny as translator - how would be best to contact her and which of your mobiles would be best suited to Azores? Txt back.  Pam hope you and Sian are ok Dick
 
Not much to report, uncomfy, windy, cold, and we aren't going to be in by Monday evening! Gutted, only just over 200 miles off now though so not much more.

Better have an  assisted shower when I get back.Can you contact Mathew and give him a prod re our airline booking. If he could book on line then e mail the tickets to Tony`s personal e mail address we should be able to print them off in  an internet caff.Maybe we`ll be anchoring in thedark Mon night/Tues morning. Hope all Ok.Regards as ever to Lucy & Robert. Mike. x.
