Jail Break


On Monday 202 Prisoners broke out of Monrovia central Prison. So far only 36 have been re-caught. Unfortunately for the 600+ prisoners still locked up, those escaping stole all the food on their way out so they had nothing at all to eat yesterday. Mercy ships responded by taking round 5 sacks of rice (amidst the cheers of the inmates) to help until they get re-supplied.

Meanwhile we are being extra vigilant whilst ashore, just incase.

Hi Cairncross' Sounds like things in Liberia are increasingly topsy turvy. Hope nothing significant happens and I am sure the swimmer watch is working overtime. Do not know if you have already left, but know it is soon. Hope you are all looking forward to the sail.

bunches of love to you all

Hello Anne, Rob, Rachel, Iona and Nattie,
Hope you are all well and that you have a relaxing sail and a great holiday in Tenerife.
Missing you and your smiling faces.
It's very cold here in England, about 4 degrees, and we had snow last weekend!!
Have a lovely Christmas.
Love and hugs,
Holly
