Moonlight Adventure

PS I loved the attack chicken sign we have an attack chook even the dog is not safe lol

gidday from Oz - Hi Ann am a friend of your mums (scrabble player on FB) loving your pics haven't got to the blogs yet - u are living my dreamlife love it - thx for sharing xxx

Hmmm... who do you want to believe? You're big bro, or the girl who thoinks that wolves are fictional creatures?

Kate says.... South London.... Nothing to do with jellied eels and all that... it's more hardcore drinking ..... by the way hi!!!! I'M Kate! x

Ayoop me duck,

I'm in South London at the minute! It's odd being this far south... I thought Islington was bad enough, but the folks round here are just strange. It's all jellied eels, pearly queens and dancing round pianos with your thumbs in your braces! Gor Blimey!

I love Spot and Ellie; they're so-ooooooo cute:-)

Love the pics of the dogs. Sammy reminds me of Den....... and Big Joe looks sad.

Hope to see you during the cruising season ( Jan - May for us) We have friends working out of Blue Lagoon St. Vincent, on RESTLESS - Ted & Tricia Do hope we can share an anchorage or two. Love Mike & Bet

Hi Guys,

Glad to read that everything is going well, we have been thinking of you both.

We are leaving on Monday the 7th of Sept heading along the west coast and then off to Gibraltar weather permitting. We will keep in touch and hopefully meet up with you on route somewhere. 

Best Regards John and Liz   

Hello both of you,

Its great to see that you are both having a fantastic time aboard Moonlight, and that the trip is going well.

We have just returned from two weeks in the West Country aboard Serenity - returning last night and now unfortunately back at work ;-( but had a great holiday - unfortunately two weeks isn't long enough but we all enjoyed.

Some friends of ours have just returned from sailing around to Greece from the Hamble and like you they kept up a blog site - it wasn't until they came back when we heard the horror stories of the Bay of Biscay, Gibraltar etc - which they decided not to worry people unnecessarily on their blog!

Great website - and love the pictures.

Have fun and a safe passage

All the very best

Paul & Karen

Hi Ann,

Finally found a moment to myself to take a look at your blog and photos etc.  It looks as though you're having the time of your lives and we hope to keep up with your adventure.  I will be explaining to Kate what you are doing and at the age of 6 she is really interested in things like this.

Good luck and keep up the blog so that we can track you down and see what is happening.

Take care

Janine (Andy's wife if you didn't already know!!)

Hiya, just discovered your website and it's fab.  Hope you are both having a great time!!  Love Rox.

Very good gives me something to read between Grand Prix's

Very entertaining blog ...  you should write for Yachting Monthly.

In fact, I have a feeling you will be....

Thanks so much for the help with finding our anchor in Falmouth. You saved us a lot of trouble. We made the Irish sea crossing on the Celtic Mist fine - the wind came round onto our backs on the Saturday. Hope you get your weather window soon, have a great voyage!

Hi! I hope you get away from Falmouth and have a great time sailing. I shall put you as one of my home pages to follow you, like stalking only better! Mum is very tired trying to pack things and I hope it isn't too much for her.

Bye

hope u are enjoying falmouth still.we had agood passage home via newlyn [which incidentally welcomed us with avery good pontoon berth-we telephonesd the hm re the availability first]

weather does not look too good for u- ive just been looking at the grib files for next week.however if you took the opportunity of the westerlies at present you could easilly make Brest and then lie up for aday or two.there are excellant anchorages  opposite brest  off the villag near the submarine pens where we sheltered in a force 8 last year. avoid camaret and moulin blanc if it is rough.it looks as if once round pen marche you would be in another weather system and should be able to pick a hop to spain or coast hop down to isle d yeu and then over.hope you dont mind me suggesting this because otherwise you look like sticking in falmouth for ever.

best wishes chris

happy happy birthday ann

Just caught up with ur blog, its fabulous entertainment.

 I can't imagine you guys coming back to a "normal" life,

Hope the weather is kind to you.

ps Dosn't everyone have 3 pairs of flippers?

first visit to your website, enjoyed all the photos, hope saxaphone over water playing progressing well

Hi How is Falmouth ???  Hope you are enjoying it and Alfie is enjoying playing with Izzi every day xxxx

Hi John & Ann,

Just logged on and will be following your fabulous journey!  And that's a proper 'journey' none of this customer based rubbish (but don't feed that back to DSGi!

Good luck to you both and sail safe.

Love Karen x
