Here I am again. We've set sail and, look, they've officially made me captain! And do you like this? I bought us all Polynesian shirts when we stopped in Tahiti.

Well, it's been quite an adventure so far and thanks to Passepartout I seemed to have learned a lot about sailing. In fact it's been plain sailing - that means making smooth and easy progress.

Sometimes we've been all at sea - meaning in a state of confusion and disorder. But, you know, I've got to know the ropes - I mean: I've learnt how to do to things properly. Everything seems shipshape now - that's in good order.

I can't wait to get to my local pub back in London where I'll be three sheets to the wind - you know what that means, don't you?! In fact, I might have a little drink now. Cheers!
