Hilary's Blog - 4 July 2008
The weather has to be the most frustrating thing in the world …. the low pressure front we were hoping would hold off until Saturday has arrived 24 hours early, meaning that we don't even have the chance to make a dash to Poole. The forecast is for winds up to gale force 8, which there is no way the Artemis would survive, let alone me!
We have been in Lymington for almost two weeks now, so the whole crew is feeling is frustrated as I am. Most people are taking the weekend off and grabbing the chance to go home to see friends and family. Sean has been lucky enough to have been invited on board an Oyster 64, which is heading to Cherbourg. He is sure to come back a rougher, tougher mariner! In the meantime Toby, Mike and I will babysit Arty and look forward to the better weather we think is due to arrive early next week.
