I am now in the clutches of the doldrums. The black clouds roll overhead, beast Aviva and I with hail, wind and rain, then leave us with nothing. The sail changes are frequent and with the nights being so black it is difficult to see them coming. The lightening can streak the sky but fortunately for me there are few with thunder and lightening in. I did manage a god shower and hair wash today but then the rain kept falling and lasted a good hour before I was free from the cloud.
I am still moving if only just and not always in the direction of my choice, the wind is dictating where it wants me to go, progress is slow but then again I am not surprised and I have a feeling that I may be caught in the clutches of the pot au noir for a while to come.
