The robbing, cheating, conspiring, swindling, basta.......... Sorry, I mean Banks, charge us about £3 per transaction + commission each time we use an ATM abroad, regardless of how much you withdraw. Tescos sell yoyo's here commission free, I'm just about to nip down & buy some & fill up my nice new Scepter Kerny Kans with Tescos finest unleaded £1.29/L

Easterly 3-4 by Saturday AM It's still all over the place, stick our noses out & see what it looks like. E3-4 is ok by me, & it's dropping out for Sunday. Probably a bit lumpier that what you're used to......... moored off the Gazelle, but pretty average for the rest of us

Currently drying out after using JCB to dig trenches and pits by each unit. Plus pumping out the courtyard to the fields. Hoping to make it though.

I'm on Anglesey. Blowing a gale and never seen so much rain, the A55 is a nightmare too.

Going to skip the Black Boy if you don't mind and see you at 8/830am tomorrow at the launch site.

Any change please let me know.

Well I'm sure the weather will be better than the Easter Around Anglesey attempt

Wish I was going but not lucky enough to have a big enough boat

Daughters prom night tonight and expecting 20 teanagers to come back to our house for an all nighter, eek!

Still, hope you can do the same trip next year and I might be able to get a ride with one of you across there, and back again

Wishinig you all a safe and fun trip

I'd be there in a flash but I fear that I'd be bringing my bags too and I'd be crashing at yours for the foreseeable future after abandoning all here on her big night

Looking forward to some of this great video footage you are all promising, hope you deliver
