As I type this the wind howls outside me little window and the briney makes the old girl lurch a little too severely for comfort. But I'll be all right - been here before y'see, been in worse seas on lesser boats. So, I reckon me old girl will see me through, God bless her hull. I've always had a good relationship with the sea, and with the wind. I respect them, y'see - you gotta respect them what can kill you.
Still, I always say a little prayer before I lay down my weary head.
I say two prayers, in fact - one for me, asking the Lord to watch over me and keep me from harm. And an extra one for all the other boys and men at sea.
With all that's happening in the world, with Bush and his eternal state of war, I think tonight I will pray for peace above all else. Perhaps you might like to join me?
Wouldn't it be great if we could all join together and pray for an end to the violence?
