You never know what you're going to get with the wind do you, we've had it ourselves more than a few times when Windy is saying one thing and the wind is doing totally the opposite! Hope you enjoyed your few days break drinking French wine (sounds good). Also Rob, Dave is loving your I pad holder, Helen could be doing the same thing but seeing your captain do it would bring it to a whole new level 😆
@@sailinggemini teamwork makes the dream work 😂😂 the wine is as good as they say. And it’s very cheap - a dangerous combination! Now, we see the weather forecast as something that would tell us if there’s a gale about to happen, in which case don’t go out. Rest of the time, it really can be anything! But as you also showed, you have to deal with what is in front of you, not with what you wished was in front of you!
On UA-cam you can find a pair, Sailing about with their Welsh terrier, A macum, a geordie and a dog, doing anything to avoid the fog, wherever you look such a trio is quite rare! 😉
Hi there guys, thanks for the fish and chips update.(need to get to Ramsgate again) No need to murder a Frenchman, why not call into the Channel Islands. Bound to be a chippy there! Next question. Having completed a lap of England what was your favourite leg, don't say the left one. Cheers, R&A
Thanks guys. The Channel Islands (or lack of) will feature in next week's episode! We're actually in La Rochelle now, ready to head to Spain! Exciting 😁 Favourite leg around the UK will probably be the south coast. Scotland was very pretty as were parts of Wales but the weather made it difficult. May on the south coast was excellent and we loved Brixham, Salcombe, Fowey and Padstow (though technically Padstow isn't the south coast.)
Nice video, shame that cameras never show what the true sea state is like! How are you two going to cope with no Fish 'n Chips - its like the Sailing brothers with no Cheese - not possible ⛵
@@1962gms thank you! You’re right, it never does. Well unless you’ve got a nice expensive camera with a zoom lens, then it looks great! Too expensive for us though. I’ve had withdrawal symptoms. Bless the French, they do try to do fish and chips but it’s not even in the same universe compared to Blighty’s!
Hi Captain and humans, i can see your in 'Les Sables de Lorrone' We're a crew of 3 Royal Navy veteran idiots on an Ex Forces 'Training Yacht' (Chaser) heading south from Plymouth to A Coruna on Friday, come rain or shine, be good to have Fish and chips together if we can synchronise at some stage
@@pauldent7067 what a coincidence, we have three idiots on our boat too! That would be terrific!! Might be a while before we’re there though - we’ll prob go from La Rochelle to Bilbao and work our way along. Will you guys be around for long? Best of luck on your epic passage!!
Well done! You must have been exhausted by the end of it! All the best. James

Ahh breakfast with a view........... Of your exploits! 😉
🍻 To nomads everywhere 🥂

Sailing about with their Welsh terrier,
A macum, a geordie and a dog,
doing anything to avoid the fog,
