It has been pouring down with rain here all night, thunder and lightning, cracked kitchen ceiling, water pouring through over the top of the cooker, frightened dogs and now it is a wet fresh morning. I have been thinking about facebook and stories and last night we were talking about facebook and the dangers of writing the wrong thing and it being misconstrued, and how anyone can look you up on facebook and make up there own idea about you.
Why am I saying all this, well my story on the boat was full of ups and downs as life is but some of the downs involved other people and I am not sure that I want to publish it all on the internet, although I would like to write about it. so as you can tell I am in a dilema.
Also at 4 am this morning I realised I was rushing through the Straits of Gibralter before going to Palma. We actually travelled down the coast of France past Toulon and Marseille, the Camargues and onto Barcelona where we stopped and took shelter for the night. We didn't go out or even get off the boat just waited until crack of dawn when things were a bit calmer to go across to the Balearic Island of Mallorca. We did not berth in Palma but in a small called Portals Nous. We spent a month in Palma before going across, and here is where I decide whether or not I continue to tell this story on the web or just to write it for myself.
Ok ...I can understand that thinking...Perhaps occasionally you could write us fans short stories that do not involve others in any major role so that we can continue to picture you with your sailing and cooking and the places you went, the smells and the sounds, the sights etc.....Love you xxx
