Sole Lundy-Biscay woke up. It was the normal morning routine, a bowl of cornflakes with ice cold milk followed by a large glass of regulation Plymouth Gin. Nothing better to get you going in the morning. The next thing to do was to log into Fastnet and check for instructions. Nothing again. It'd been five days now. There'd been three or four days without communication but five was definitely a record.

Well that's a mess of tenses and perspective.
