I drove Briggsy to the Picton Ferry this morning. Another blue-sky day in Nelson and Picton, but a different story in Cook Straight. The 11.30am sailing had been cancelled due to the rough conditions out there. By the 1pm sailing the weather gauge in the ferry office had moved from very rough to a more sedate rough, and sailings were commencing again. So you lot that are expecting her up north tonight, be aware that she is now several hours late. She didn't manage to book a bus North from Wellington before sailing so how far she gets tonight will depend on: 1, how long the ferry crossing takes (I hope its not too bad Briggsy), and 2, what buses are available in Wellington when she gets there. Milky's' Mum might be in for another visit yet.
Thats all I know... txt Briggsy for further updates. We now return you to our regularly scheduled programme.
