Despite breaking all known food safety rules we had an excellent Christmas. Roast chicken, roast potatoes of the super crispy kind, carrots and peas courtesy of Morrison's supermarket and a lovely gravy. All served in our best china dog bowls.
A sail change later saw the next course arrive - peaches and evaporated milk. A little siesta and as few jobs as possible saw the day rounded off with butterscotch dumplings.

| Not THE butterscotch dumplings, but close enough. |
Mind you these treats nearly did not arrive as the flour bag exploded and took a bit of sorting out, followed by the lid flying off the skimmed milk container for a second round of dustpan and vacuum cleaner. Dave was not amused as the weighing station is his work bench and it all went over the boxes strapped underneath - nuts and bolts flour and milk, very tasty! But we had very full tummies for bed time!
We are going slow as there is not a lot of wind, still 250 miles to reach Antigua! And the bumpies have returned! Loads of love to you all,
Jenny and Dave.
