Jean Says: Preparations still underway, even though we aren't yet...... Provisioning: It might be hard to get your five a day when you're crossing the Atlantic, but given that we'll never be more than a day away from a shop, we have no real excuse for eating convenience food. Having said that, we are about to enter a world of instant coffee, hob nobs, tinned chicken balti, baked beans, anything covered in chocolate, and items of the well known brand, I can't believe it's not edible. We know this for several reasons, one is that through previous experience, we've already anticipated our imminent culinary downfall, and have stocked up copiously on the above, the other is, that we've found that we frequently don't CARE what we put inside ourselves after a day of being tossed about on a boat, and generally being blown to smithereens. So far, standards have never dropped to the level of Pot Noodle, but if they ever do, our training in May Day procedure will come in handy. The most important thing is to make sure that we don't arrive back covered in carbuncles and twice our normal size, although if we do, it might not be because of the food. Other shopping: Age defying Moisturising cream

  1. I think I could possibly live with the cabin fever, banging my head in the heads, the weather, the foul tide, the bloody wind dying....but instant coffe the whole way round...I think you deserve a percolator. Essential items first.
    Have a great trip round. J
