So it's about turn and head for Latvia ...again. I wonder if there's anything left after our last visit
18 M in front so a couple of days and we're back in the Baltic.

We made it. Cyprus is ours. #66 . Lot's of happy memories and some very hazy ones here, so staying for a few beers and rums on the beach. Sierra Leone up next, not so many happy memories there.... in fact never want to see the place again, but hey yo, will be ( only virtually ) there and gone before the new year. In fact I'm staying here. Silver you are in command, will rejoin the fleet on our way to the Caribbean and home
Pity we missed out on some of the earlier countries. Vietnam was great for someone as young as I was.
Indonesia, well I remember going to a bank, taking out the maximum amount allowed which worked out at £40. thinking, awesome going to have to do this everyday, then a week later, taking everyone from the local bar to a nightclub after buying them all dinner and still having more than half left over. And my apartment had a swimming pool, which we used after the nightclub. Luckily my apartment didn't have neighbors
Iceland was one of the most spectacular countries I have every visited. The glaciers and hot springs, volcanoes.. out of this world.
Georgia had perhaps the best red wine I have ever drunk and some of the locals were quite stunning. Just don't speak Russian or you will be in ehhhh...trouble

And it's gone again!

I've never seen an island run away before

I'm begining to wonder if there is someone playing with us?
Latvia jumped 8 million away from us, now Cyprus has done the same. Could it be the same person??
It's only a matter of time till we land on the beach again anyway so onwards

seems to be a likely explanation, but can't see who it is that is doing it....or maybe we are paranoid

weird. on the 23rd latvia lost 8.1k
http://boincstats.com/en/stats/-1/count ... 9/lastDays, just after we overtook them, today Cyprus gained 8.6 k
http://boincstats.com/en/stats/-1/count ... 5/lastDays.
seems to be that someone needs to get a life or join us as a true pirate
got him

Well spotted my CSI pirate chum
Just makes it more interesting overtaking everwhere twice, it's also good to get the chance to have another look around
Cyprus should be ours again tomorrow...

If you can't beat 'em... you could always join 'em. I'm sure they'd give you a warm welcome and barrels of rum!

You are more than welcome to jump onboard, the more the merrier, although it does make the Rum rations last less. Guess we'll just have to store more
