Race 1 - Day 23
Crew Diary - Race 1 Day 23: Liverpool to Punta del Este
12 September

In true 'Julie Andrews' style here are a few of my favourite things;

1. Butter
2. Onions
3. Milk
4. Red Jam
5. Chocolate
6. Crisps
7. Fresh Vegetables

Here is also a list of the foodstuffs we are now out of on CV20;

1. Butter
2. Onions
3. Milk
4. Red Jam
5. Chocolate
6. Crisps
7. Fresh Vegetables
8. Steak as of 10 minutes ago
9. Mustard

I mean, could you make it up!! I am incensed! I thought of taking this up with Skipper but he is too busy frying us sirloin steaks as I type this and I feel he may not be too receptive to my issue.

I know, I’ll take it up with Claire Fulton, our Victualler - she was the one who painstakingly put this all together......it’s about time, I gave her a piece of my mind!

Oh, hang on she looks a little busy at the moment, so maybe I’ll just send her a polite email when I get back to London.... that should do it!

On a more serious note, Lance our long-suffering Skipper has taken to cooking dinner in the Galley tonight dressed in a black Basque and stockings!! Everyone assures me this is common custom when we have crossed the Equator so I'll just put it down to another one of these sailing rituals and say nothing.

Sailing...she is a cruel mistress (but she looks the part tonight)!
