Hey dude, we are on Guernsey for lunch, we'll be going back about 4pm.

I'm sure we will be at the torchlight and fireworks do tonight. I think we'll be eating at the fish and chip shop near the harbour.

We'll probably go to the marquee for a few beers too.

Some more photos of Alderny, the slightly altered, parallel universe that is this island, for you to look at. Cracking weather here, we spent the day endlessly jumping off the quay, watching the daft raft race and generally chilling before the big procession tonight through the town and the party with some high standard live music.

Alderney, Cherbourg, Guernsey, Sark, Alderney - what a week it's been. Home tomorrow to avoid the next storm.

Yup - got back safely yesterday afternoon after a nice run across the Channel with Superfly (CFG) and Ocean Devil (Marc).

Decided to try out the Aux on it's bracket for the last bit up Southampton Water and the Itchen (as I haven't used it properly since it was fitted) and it worked well - easy to set up and its 9.9hp pushed us along at 5Kts against a slightly falling tide and the flow of the Itchen, so did exactly what I hoped it would do.

Thanks everyone for a great few days - the weather really couldn't have been much better!

And thank you Trevor for showing us around - the trip to Sark was the best for me, mooring up on the wall of the little Creux Harbour and exploring the time warp island there was really incredible. Anyone interested in doing this next year then we plan to return for four days camping (Glamping) at Saye Beach on Alderney. For family's or groups the pre erected, fully equipped tents with three bedrooms were excellent - just bring sleeping bags as everything else is laid on. I have a year to somehow find the energy to hit that quarry party and stay until dawn..

Dude, taking your kids to a rave wasn't the brightest idea that I've ever had
