Hi Lovely Annie, as they say in modern parlance ‘am luvin’ your posts and have really really felt for you re. being way out at sea. You are a brave strong lady. I’ve only ever been on a ferry and had many several trips trogging up and down the Thames, neither of which bear comparison, of course! I wonder if you’re keeping notes over and above your blogs; the combination of those AND the blogs would have the makings of a very fine book. How about publishing on a very small scale.. enough for each member of the family (friends) and posterity!? I did take notice of your advice about the shoe insert and at laaaaaast have one. Does the job Brilliant. I was one centimetre away from having to have built up heels. I don’t think so!! Anyway, not sure what kind of things I should write apart from say ‘hi’ and, oh, I know how it feels to lack sleep. Chin up. Lots of love, Rosie x

Wow Annie, we are watching your progress across the Atlantic with awe. Expect you’ll get this on arrival in the Caribbean when it’s all behind you. Bruce is on Dolce Vita in Barcelona planning to sail north towards the Costa Brava. That all sounds very tame.
Look forward to your next blog. Love G and B

Sorry to have been a bit slack in posting a comment, but have still been avidly following your blog. You are made of sterner stuff than I am! Are you planning to visit the Turks & Caicos islands? If so, I have a friend, Vicky Turner, who runs an artisan coffee roasting business there, TCI Coffee Roasters. I’m sure she would love to make you a cup! Jerry xx
