Helooo to you to awesome ocean chickens. Trust you are all safe at home and back to the grindstone. Again what a fantabulous achievement by you orjus go-getter gals. We welcomed Pete back at airport yesterday. What a beaut he & his wife are. Kim said that everyone in Antigue was asking who Tess was. Well Pete only realised who I was when I told him & he said “hell women, did you do anything else in those 76 days, he rowed & I blogged” I became addicted to your daily stories & felt yr highs and lows. Maybe a sponsored flight to the Uk for your prize giving would be in order……am not joking. I just love encouraging people and seeing them achieve, thats my forte. Please email me and let me know what u up to and what yr next adrenalin junkie challenge will be, If you need a second, I will be there like a shot xxxxx have a peachy smiley face day xxxxxxx(tess@mland.co.za) love Tess Mills from Nyamazela land

hi.annie mel. just a few words to let you know that what you both have achieved has had a really uplifting and positive effect on myself and wellwishers there must be hundreds if not thousands of people all over the globe who have watched and are still watching you rowers the ones that have finished and the ones who will follow, as you have followed, the now famous explorers chay blyth etc; etc;who pioneered this ocean event. but modern technology allowed everyone to follow your progress throughout the whole voyage and in a lot of ways showed us exactly what you had to overcome, this in itself has been fascinating and has been far more interesting than just seeing the news bulletins fom yesteryear when these [men] first rowed this ocean. you two are now immortalised with all the people who have achieved this feat. again a big BIG CONGRATULATIONS you thouroughly deserve it B.B.pete.

Annie and Mel,
Many congratulations from all at Shropdoc. Quite staggered at your feat of endurance, you certainly worked your way through lots of difficulties from before the race started all the way through to antigua. Trust you are having a well deserved rest. If you can send some photographs when you have a chance that would be good
regards
Graham
