Today has been a good day all round. I found some extra choc chip flapjacks which had been hiding at the bottom of a storage compartment. On the progress front I now have 590 miles to go. There is a good current with me at the moment which is taking me west which is great. Hopefully this current sticks around! The seat broke again today. I think it's the 4th time it has failed since I have been out here. I'm not to worried it does look like I have enough spares to make it in.

Being easter this coming weekend think of me when you're eating mountains of chocolate. I'm told I have an egg at home waiting for me.

I'm writing the blog a little early tonight as I want to row for an extra hour this evening while conditions are good. Will finish tonight's shift at 1am when I'm sure most of you are tucked up in bed.

Thanks to everyone for all the messages, keep them coming great to read them all. Also I'd like to say congratulations to Faisal and his wife for having a baby girl on Saturday. Nice one mate!

The oars are calling me so out for now
