If all the fleet has to get round is a sea breeze and tidal movement will they make it or quit?

Anyone running a book?

Just be thankful you weren't out there at 21:00 - 22:00. Lightning strikes all around as I came back from Studland to Lymington.

It's a well-known fact that there are no windows at the Met Office.

I saw lightning in the distance behind us as we headed back to Portsmouth, looked like it hit the ground, we were caught in a light sqall just before we headed in.
