Sore bottoms
Well over half way now, and less than a week we
hope to the under 1000miles to go. Constant bad
weather has caused non stop rowing problems for
the boys. Every time you look on the weather
sites the waves are going south or east- not
following the traditional trade route patterns.
So it has been hard work- not that it isn't
normally. Everything is sore including the ocean
rowers bottom- however thanks to the black sheep
fleece, no boils! just salt water sores. Matt
however is in good spirits as he can see the end
in sight. Fixing the cooker was also a great
boost. Dispite having taken several, they have
found the constant spray a cooker killer and were
down to their last one, however Matt managed to
get one that had given up the ghost back and
working. Better weather has been a great boost
too. But still over 20 days to go- it has been a
long haul, not only for them but for us left
behind.

Black Sheep
Never knew they had a sheep with them , let alone
that they had shorn it! So glad that they are now
down to the final 1000 miles. What mental strength
they have to keep on despite the terrible weather
they had to put up with. Looks like we'll be
meeting them in Barbados. kEEP ON PULLING BOYS.
