The wind is still blowing in from the south at 18-22kn and we are making good progress west but have slowed down in making any distance to the south. Last night was a beautiful clear night with a great view of the stars. The Southern Cross is slowly spending more time above the horizon. Had some lovely avo's for lunch today. It is a pity that they all ripen at the same time. We only bought four, so more for lunch tomorrow and then they are finished. Typing is not the easiest at the moment as the keyboard moves continually below ones hands so one continually gets the wrong keys. The grib files show this weather for another two days and then hopefully it will head a little more easterly. At least we have wind so we cannot complain. Sleeping is the only problem... so before I dose off here at the keyboard let's get this posted.
