Tossed and Turning

Currently sitting north of the Azores, but Parallel with Brussels so truly miles from anywhere. We re now picking up BBC1 and ITV via Northern Ireland, so it feels as though we're nearly home. We had gale force winds last night but you couldn't feel a thing due to their direction; the night before, however, we had a significant change in swell which was sickening, despite not being technically "rough", and left DofM with little sleep. We have covered 2214 nautical miles, with 1018 to go until Southampton.

Mrs DofM is safely back home, having had a Doctor escort back on the flight back from Toronto; she was glad of the Doctor escort as her Oxygen Saturation levels dropped up at altitude.
To reiterate my last missive in July, Choir begins on Thursday for Boys (4:30-6:00pm) and Girls (6:15-8:00pm), and then on Friday again for Boys (4:30-6:00pm), Choral Scholars (6:15-8:30pm) and Men (7:00-8:30pm). There is an additional obligatory rehearsal for the Choral Scholars on Saturday (1:00-4:00pm), and then Sunday is as usual with Boys & Men in the morning and Girls & Men in the evening.
