Day 80 - Hanging around

Andrew and Guy continue to “hang out” under the para anchor in difficult local conditions. The boys are planning to move North West when conditions allow rowing. Considering the circumstances Flying Ferkins remains a happy boat.

Current depth 2500metres.

Thank you for the great comments. If you have any good pub quiz style questions please post them on the comments. A little mind stimulation would be well received.

    Hi there guys, Hope you’re ok. Sarah is rowing in seas that feel like concrete she says.hard work, with the winds not blowing as she would like. She’s having the Minstrels tomorrow to celebrate 100 days at sea……………….what a feat!!
    Banana Test
    There was a very, very tall coconut tree and there are 4 animals,
    a Lion, a Chimpanzee, a Giraffe, and a Squirrel, who pass by.
    They decide to compete to see who is the fastest to get a banana off the tree.
    Who do you guess will win?
    Your answer will reflect your personality.
    So think carefully . . … Try and answer within 30 seconds
    Got your answer?
    Now scroll down to see the analysis.
    ……………..
    ………………
    ………………..
    If your answer is:
    Lion = you’re dull.
    Chimpanzee = you’re a moron.
    Giraffe = you’re a complete idiot.
    Squirrel = you’re just hopelessly stupid.
    A COCONUT TREE DOESN’T HAVE BANANAS.
    Obviously you’re stressed and overworked.
    You should take some time off and relax!
    Try again next year.

    what answer did you get????
    Keep smiling. Everyone is willing those winds to change.

    Do I detect movement from Ferkins? Jeremy, can you tell us - do they have enough time left to overtake SC?

    Can anyone explain a confusion I have from the progress site. I see that RFP have now finished and they are hailed as being in second place - but I thought that both Bexhill and Pura Vida had finished ahead of them. In my books that puts RFP in third. Has someone been disqualified without any mention on that site?

    Denise and I were just wondering how Lolita was?
    Hope you are both well, lol xx
