Found myself in tears watching the news last night – seeing Ellen MacArthur's return to Falmouth was out of this world. Earlier I had heard a radio report and though it provided interest and information, it could not match the sheer spectacle of hundreds of boats accompanying Ellen back into port.
Ellen is only 28 years old and has accomplished so much. It takes my breath away, especially as I am relieved to have swopped boat holidays for a campervan.
