Part 8 alternative diary

 At last we think we have found Wales. Mostly because we ended up in Gloucestershire, after rowing up the sea known as the Severn. Which was in fact a river. The mallard ducks and lilies should have given the game away but Skipper Jess swore they were in fact Gannets and seaweed.

After a quick ice-cream and an argument with a Pedalo shaped like a swan, we set back they way we came but backwards, Mostly because we couldn’t remember how to turn around.



It's been a few days since I have spoken to you. We passed a Cardigan, along with some other knitted items that fell off a ship. Andrea has been fashioning a pullover out of one of the items as Archibald is losing his feathers. I think he has decided to give up flying.
We have now realised once again that Jess had had problems with the route. And the problem was that North Ireland was going to be a bit tricky to row through. Mostly because its land and you cannot row a row boat in land. We know, because we tried.
So, with this news our idea is to row really fast around the Isle of Man four times in a bid to make them feel less left out.

Rowing has been hard.  Because it's now uphill.
We have run out of sea-themed topics.
At the moment Steph is wondering who Gordon Bennet is.

Charlie wonders if Womble's music is as popular today as when her mum was young. Who not only had the album. But used to go to a Womble convention in Leeds. She dressed us as Orinoco.


Actually, the girls are Wombles because they want to make the oceans cleaner

Song of the day was Wombles theme tune

Undersea, over sea. Wombles are we
Raising the funds for a good charity
Cleaning the oceans because it is a mess
Shame we are lost most the time due to Jess
