sunday 6th december 2009
Hi there.. thought I would check the blog today just in case there’s a fragment of chance that anyone gives a crap, and guess what? I found like 425 comments waiting for me! I was quite impressed until I realised that 423 of them were spam. Actually I’ve approved a couple for reading so you can see just how random and trippy the internet has become (see bottom of page). Some are entirely illegible, and others just throw random words about like “aardvark” and “fence” and then go on to mention liver damage or the benfits of cialis. It’s so weird I’m almost tempted to click a link to see just where the path of dementia will lead. But curiosity killed the cat, right? (Actually that doesn’t dissaude me, as I hate cats, but you get the idea.)
Anyway, enough waffle.. We are again at sea after a fairly frenetic couple of months in Barcelona getting ourselves ready for a crossing. Yep, that’s right, we are once again headed for Antigua after an absence of 2 seasons, and we’re all very happy about it. Quick stop in Gibraltar to stock up on bisto and powdered egg and then bosh! Over we go!
So get ready Skullduggery, Abra’s, Mongoose and Lemming.. we are thirsty!

You guys were “in Kotor” so long I figured you finally gone “round the twist”; but if you’ve just bought powdered eggs and are heading west; you’ve finally snapped out of it…(well,sorta) Five will get you ten that you’ve also got a healthy supply of custard powder aboard, too. Christmas at Falmouth won’t be all that bad, guys…..

Glad to see you coming round to our side of the world. Jim and I want to see how close you come this season to the USA. We have several sailors from USS Beaumont that want to see her one more time. Several
sons of sailors (like me) would love to honor our fathers by coming too. Jerry, are you still there…..email me. It would mean a lot to them and more to us (Sons of the Beaumont)
