Amazing

I can sail all the way to Eastbourne, endure endless days at sea and recount all kinds of adventures with no comment. I sprout a little bit of total nonsence and I get more comments than ever before.

By the way Eastbourne is very cold this time of year. Surprising because you wouldn't think that the desert would be like that.

In not even a week I will travel home to Brighton, which oddly is quite near to Eastbourne. Then the adventure will really begin!

Sand Dunes just outside Eastbourne

South Atlantic Rules

Cliff, I think you have made a school boy error on this one mate and
left me wide open to win. You see, because Eastbourne is in the
Southern hemesphere you have to go anti clockwise around the high
pressure. Therefore starting at Notting Hill will do you no good!
I would, if I was to entertain playing this foolish game, start in
Kensigton High Street, giving me a direct route to Mornington Crescent
via Hyde Park Corner and the Old Kent Road.

Better luck next time my friend.

Readership Increases During July

The Internet police have encouraged me to change the content of the blog and so I have deleted 3 months of wonderful memories from my miss spelt and probably poorly written journal.

There must be a lot of internet police because readership has increased by 500% in July! There are now a massive 10 readers and one of them is probably me.

Meanwhile, Eastbourne remains sunny, sandy and a little bit African.

We arrived at Mornington Crescent

The Mornington Crescent that is in Eastbourne not London. Just so that it is clear.

After 22 days at sea we were nearing our destination. I woke up early, excited for our arrival. The last week was really uncomfortable! The weather was not bad but we were faced with big head seas and winds that prevail in this area. As the days to the end of the journey closed the margin of fuel was feeling more comfortable too.
Today was calm and glorious, the bright sun shining, on a clear, cold winters morning, we had some seals swimming around the boat and crew spirits were raised as we were looking out for the low land on the horizon. Then. As had also been predicted we disappeared into a very think bank of fog. Great! Luckily it was only about ten miles think and when we came out the other side we could see the coast. Wow! Eastbourne had changed since I last saw it! Those sand dunes really are amazing. Just miles and miles of uninterrupted sand dunes as far as the eye can see and onwards beyond imagination.
We had made it safely and by the afternoon we had tied up in the harbour on the small craft jetty! It seems that the African community has really done well in Mornington Crescent and we were greeted warmly by them.

Amnesia

I woke up this morning with a horrible head ache and I have forgotten
where I am and where I am going.

I noticed the date on the screen says 21st July 2008. How can that be!?
I must have been sleeping for this whole last 3 months and everything
was just a dream. The whole thing! Nothing really happened.

Tomorrrow I will resume my normal life selling fish and chips on the
sea front in Brighton.

The end
