Back to England ( well St Lucia)

 

The photo shows Rodney Bay on the North of St Lucia taken from the top of the old fort on Pigeon Island (thanks Neil and Sue).  Its so nice to be back in an 'English Island'.  Lots of French here but now they are the foreigners!! We spent a couple of days in the marina to do some work on the boat, as they were slowly knocking it down around us - expanding it to take in Superyachts. We've now moved down the coast to Marigot bay a little lagoon just South of the capital -beautiful spot with free WiFi but which unfortunately suffers from 'Caribbean disease' ie playing louder and louder live music until the small hours, from the local bar. Why does it always end up with rubbish renditions of Bob Marley!!!!  Anyway we've got a car for the day and are going to have a look around and then head further down the Island to the Pitons are which is absolutely beautiful so we are told.

Faye - I haven't forgotten your plea for an article for the newsletter - just been so busy (really).  I will do it this week.

We are now booked in to take the boat out of the water on 2 June and are looking to return on the 6th.  It will be strange to get cold again - but not wet, its meant to be the dry season here so why is it p******g down as I write this.

Blighty

You'll be glad to get back. The feeling will last at least 10 days, then you'll realise that 'our' politicians & officials are just as stupid as where you are now, they just have a different accent and live in a colder climate! Ablett will have my new contact details, but googlemail address will be the same.
