Well we left Morlaix Locks at 06:40 French time and calmly traveld down the river to Chateaux Taureau where we parted company with Mary & Tony aboard Cap Cornwal. They had spent yet another winter in Morlaix and were heading back to their home port Falmouth. The winds were F1 SW so we had to motor all the way 14 hrs later and we arrived in Guernsey to a warm welcome ( Hi Pete and Sal go wherever you like see you in the morning) and that was that. Claude the skipper of Pet a 106 year old pilchard chaser with his girlfriend Sue ( Sal's cousin) met us in the marina and treated us to Fish and Chips, lovely. We will stay here for about 12 days to see friends and Sal's mum. We left Graham on Deep Thought in Morlaix as he decided to stay till friday and then head for Camaret. What a guy. He was getting all the rubbish and things he didn't need anymore off the boat which amounted to papers from 1982 to present, 5 bags. 1 Ironing board and a load of other stuff. Graham is sailing on his own on a westerley33 ketch he is a great guy and likes to think realy hard about all jobs to be done on the boat so they only get done once. He is heading for Gibralter to spend the next winter there so we hope to keep in touch. Right time 07:00BST time for my breakfast so see you all again soon. Thanks for reading and we hope you enjoy.
