This wonderful log, which was pointed out to me by a member of the Hootoo (h2g2) which was founded by Douglas Noel Adams, has kept me riveted for the last 40 minutes.

I have lived every moment of your exciting journey; have marvelled at your bravery and admired your courage and dedication.

I was under the impression that Marion Island "belonged" to South AFrica. Sure ly they could place a 200 miles no fishing limit around it? And what about those islands that are owned by the French. They should do the same.

I have difficulty reading, but am thrilled at the sixe of the font which meams that I am able to read relatively easily.

Thank you for sharing this wonderful trip dedicated to saving the Giant Albatross from the danger of longline fishing. We salute and honour you.
