Update: We’re pinned down with little to do but get hit by heavy winds and play scrabble and perhaps send a few updates and photos when the Internet allows… Looks like we’ll be here for at least another day. It’s a force 8 on our nose which, we’re reliably informed, means.. Don’t move…. Currently on the iPad playing in the background is “I’m not moving” by The Script… True!
I know it looks as though we’re being caught by the World Record. Well, it just goes to show how tough it is to get around this Island…. The current World Record for a two man row around the UK deserves all the praise it probably didn’t receive when they did it!! So, well done to those guys. We still hope to get out of this pickle at some point soon…
