Well, here goes!

Off to pack my stuff for the sailing trip now - I think I've got everything I need. I'm both excited and nervous. The taxi's coming at 04.30 tomorrow to take me to catch the coach to Heathrow, so I really should go to bed early. But I won't be able to sleep very easily so I might as well stay up as normal.

Did I mention that I was a bit excited?

See you all in a week's time!

Fair winds and following seas, mate--

And two possibly useful things:

"Up you're aft" (the farther back a group of lines is, the higher on the mast the sail they control is)

"Can't bloody remember/learn" (Clew, bunt, reef/leech) The order of the gear for a square sail, going fore to aft.

Fair winds to you, sweetheart!

(Oh, but this voyage of yours is making me all bouncy and squee-y in advance, seeing as I'll not be boarding 'my' tall ship until next June. D'oh! :-)

Go and have the time of your life. And give your ship a cuddle and a kiss on my behalf, too. ;-)

Have a wonderful time. Remember, they're only guidelines; the word is "parley", not "partay", never say "avast behind" unless you're addressing an elephant and when you're up in the crow's nest, keep your piratical hat on as albatrosses like to dive bomb unsuspecting people. And have a wonderful, amazing time! (((hugs)))

You'll be sorely missed on LJ. You have our full permission to bore us senseless with everything when you get back.

A bit late but...
