Weather delays

Delayed again. There is a system coming across the Coral Sea which is due to cross the coast near here on Wednesday. It's unlikely to be a cyclone but it's not unknown at this time of year - however, ocean water temperatures are declining at a rapid rate and, as cyclones need warm water to develop, it's not expected to develop beyond a tropical low.
Still, it's probably going to bring some strong winds and rain and who needs that?!! Especially as when one leaves here all the anchorages are ho-hum at best and strictly shelter from the SE wind only. It's only when one arrives at Lizard Is. that the anchorage is more secure.
So, we'll wait until it blows over - probably Thursday or Friday - and then go and be wafted north on gentle southerly zephyrs - yeah right!!
Keep watching the blogsite for more fascinating news!!!!!
Cheers and love from us
Jim and Jean (Gina)
P.S. In case anyone was wondering, the reason we had to vacate the boatyard when X-Rays were being taken wasn't because of any military secrecy but rather that they belatedly decided we were inside the safe radiation radius. Mostly a case of covering their backsides.
