the credit crunch


Well once again the banks have decided that they will use our money but give us nothing. So this year we have decided to stay on the North Brittany coast but it is no hardship as we love it here. We headed of for Guernsey to see Sal's mum and all our friends there. We had some really great news as a friend who had been in hospital many times over the past 10 years had a final operation that has now given him a new lease of life. He also got married so we had plenty to celebrate. We saw Sue (Sal's cousin) and Claude for a BBQ and a chat about their plans to go off for a year around Europe in Pet Claude's 106 year old Pilchard Driver. We intended to stay for a week but this stretched to a month as we were having such a good time. It came time to move on so filled the tanks and headed to Binic somewhere we had not visited for quite some time. We left on a beautiful sunny day with just the right wind for a quick 9hr sail.
