Fry up Friday

Hello and welcome to the last blog of this trip. Today we got to lie in because it was too windy to sail back to Glasson Dock. We got up at 8 and had a BIG fry up of EVERYTHING left on the boat. It was huge but we still managed to eat most of it. After the breakfast, Frankie and Grace washed up for the first time and while they were washing up we all started on the awards.

The Tenacity of Bolton 6 awards are:

· Best Chef-Ellie
· Best pudding chef-Mary
· Worst dingy driver-Grace
· Worst washer-Grace
· Most untidy-Grace

· Worst boat driver-Georgie
· Most likely to speed boat up-Georgie
· Best photographer-Trevor
· Best ‘knotter’-Trevor
· Most relaxed and best lookout-James

After making the awards we finished off cleaning the boat we just relaxed and got ready for the long drive back to school. We are so excited to see all of our friends and family but we are also very sad to be leaving one of the best experiences of our lives. We will miss Mary, Trevor and James as they have taught us a lot. Whilst living with them 24/7 in such close confines you get to know them more thoroughly.

We have deeply enjoyed this experience and it is a memory we will have forever!

Just a brief note from the staff to say well done to all of the crew for remaining positive, upbeat and understanding. Because of the weather conditions, we were forced to stay at Fleetwood Dock for the majority of the trip, however morale remained high throughout the week. I would also like to mention that we could not have safely completed our passage to Piel Island without you all up on deck on lookout and sounding the fog horn when we encountered poor visibility.
Well done everyone!
