I bet you won't be able to resist the lure of the forum via an internet cafe or your iPhone!
Have a good one.

We've just made Boulogne (only 2 weeks off, me) and it was a hard slog into a F5 south westerly. Family not v happy, although they've quickly forgotten their displeasure now we're here.

I'm now returned to Cambridge for a week, before returning to Jersey for a two week cruise around the islands and making our way up the French coast to Dover.
