St Helena & some idle chatter.

We pulled the spinnaker down just before sunset last night - I wanted to
slow down so that we wouldn't arrive in St Helena in the dark. With just the
genoa out, we slowed down a lot and will probably only get to the anchorage
by about midday SA time.

We put a few beers in the fridge last night and there is much excited natter
about cracking the first one in nearly two weeks. Bet they go straight to
our mouths?

Peter and Steve had a moment of restlessness yesterday and decided to hose
down the decks. They found an enormous amount of long, black hair and wanted
to know who I'd had on board in Cape Town. They wouldn't believe that I had
had a very sexy mother and her daughter on board for a few days. It's just a
pity they belong to a friend of mine and I could nothing about it.
