Turned Away by the French!


OK, not quite the "NON!" of  de Gaulle, and you have to be of a certain age to know what I'm talking about ๐Ÿ˜‰ but Mark & company were stopped from crossing into French waters (two-thirds of the way across!) because, well, you can't really be upset, it was for their own safety... Thick fog! Mark told me he could hardly see his hand in front of him, and those bigger ships in the shipping lanes are BIG! Anyway, good practice, Mark and Jason feel very confident (they were managing a great speed of 4 knots!) and they're going over again in a couple of weeks time. They'll make it, no doubt...

Watch this space!
