I grew up, and live, in the windiest city in the world (Wellington), which is apparently in the Roaring Forties, so wind doesn't bother me. The ocean terrifies me though! We recently had a 'red warning' for severe wind and people pretty much went about as normal. A few trampolines ended up in neighbour's gardens... One or two rooves flew off, I think.

Mike, I love that I’m reading this coincidentally tucked up in a bunk on a tall ship, the Maybe, anchored tonight off … the Isle of Man. Reading this I enjoyed that vicarious thrill of adventure that I know I could never, ever, undertake.
