According to the mayor, the fire at the Falmouth Beach Hotel this morning is the biggest ever fire in Falmouth. We drove through the smoke when we went into town on the bus, with lots of blue flashing lights and helecopters. The fire was fanned by very strong southerly winds. This also caused the cancellation of the Scillonian, the ferry to the Scilly Isles. If the ferry is cancelled, I guess we will be taking a rain check on our proposal to leave at 05.30 tommorrow morning.
Gail is rightly a bit concerned that she might be left helming on her own to Scilly and over to Ireland (26 hours) if I sucomb to seasickness again. We must therefore make sure the weather is set fair.
Sea sick glasses not working then Les? Looks like the weather has given you the perfect opportunity to do some extra fitness training and additional daily stretching! Fantastic!

ReplyDeleteJust read the bit about seasickness
There is a drug ( cannot remember the name) that is available for sailors now (it used not to be) it was developed for cancer patients undergoing chemo to stop their sickness
