Escape from Guernsey came around soon enough,,
3.30 and the tide, as predicted gave us 2.4m over the sill, and we were on our way to Cameret, in the entrance to Brest.. yeeehaa..
This was to be a significant marker as it now 280 miles which is a tenth of the way to Gozo,,great,,
Arriving in Cameret after a full 24 hours of sailing we settled down for a welcome rest..
Hilly being the lightest amoungst us volunteered to ascend the mast to re tie a loose lazy jack,, well done Hilly,
(quite appropriate with a name like Hilly Angell)
The following day Malcolm and I said our goodbyes to Hilly and Sam as they were back to the UK for a week or so,, hopefully they will rejoin us around Bordeaux or Biaritz
Hilly is barking mad. Bob or Malcolm need to lose weight before I get on boat because I most definitely will not be climbing up the mast
