26o 07.74'N 80o 07.27'W – Fort Lauderdale (Still)
The team is assembled, primed and ready for the off. The internet has been searched until a favourable weather forecast has been found so we are off in the morning, bound for Bermuda.
The team consists of:
Brian; with fishing rod in one hand cook book in the other, is in a constant trance reciting the mantra – Port left, Starboard right.
Mike; Mobile phone pressed so hard to his ear that circulation has long since ceased, is white with fear at the prospect of being out of touch – thank goodness then that he achieved a successful test on the Satellite telephone.
Stewart; cool, collected and quietly confident after clearing his desk and telling his clients that he'll be away for a while.
We wonder then why he is so keen to keep his Blackberry fully charged and with in reach at all times.
And there's me in a fluctuating state of anxiety, is the weather going to hold, will the wind move into the south as forecast, do we have enough loo roll are and where is that awful smell coming from?
Only time will tell so hopefully a few answers next time.
