    I thought it was rather normal – I was just the same when I was whizzing around the Pacific many years ago…

    Hi Sheila and all your lovely family.
    We have been watching your adventures, and your Mam and Dad said we should leave a message to let you know we are thinking of you.
    Looks like you are having the most amazing experiences.
    Take care, God bless.

    Lily and I are looking forward to seeing that video played again at the girls’ weddings. I am not so sure that they will be so keen.

    It made us laugh a lot sat here in rainy Buckinghamshire!

    I must say I am quite concerned for the metal health of your children. Obviously trapping them on this tiny boat is not good for them. Also, I don’t see the point of forcing them to go from place to place and see all these things and exposing them to dangerous situations with strange people when there is perfectly good literature with illustrations on the very countries you are seeing! I find National Geographic for kids a perfectly fine resource and should satisfy the need for outlandish adventures. If this is not enough there are some nice TV programs that, with supervision, can be quite educational. If you must continue with this dubious sailing thing I would like to suggest you consider placing what appear to be lovely children in boarding school, of which I understand there are many in your country. I would implore you to do this before it’s too late !

    Concerned,
    Brian Johnson

    PS, I find their taste in music deplorable and fear they will never developed a refined ear for the classics if you let them listen to this crazy so called music.
