Yo Ho Cap'n, Lost Boys, Shirkers & Uncle Tom Cobbleigh
Went out in the lovely sunny afternoon for a ride, once conditions had improved. No dice with the ice. Cap'n tempted but stayed in port with his broken ribs, broken shifter, broken resolve, broken dreams.

40 miles @ 16mph. Bracing into the Nor' Westerly, all sheets to the wind on return!
Might be out tomorrow, if the Black Pig's ice-breaker is fitted-forecast is 2-3C around 10am.

See you at 1000 looking forward to the ride
Cap'n back in fine form, the new lightweight FD (well done John) and the return of the 'bullet'
Ifear the last thing the Black Pig needs is an anchor!! and in dock for repairs
Have a safe ride, weather looks good.

All Lost Boys welcome, so get out of yer hammock and report for duty on deck!
First voyage for the Pig this year, so all hands will be rusty.
We'll all get fitter together.
Nice and steady ride, plenty of fun and banter as ever
See everyone in the morning.

Time to limp back on deck
Anchor men welcome, so come on Pete !

Echo the Cap'n's thoughts - good to be out with the crew again in some winter sunshine.
Walking wounded making sound recoveries.
Thanks to CTJ for the route and ensuring all did a regular turn on the front.
