12-30 hrs: Sunday was also spent on the river - this time doing rescue. The picture was taken in August - and shows the view downstream with a fleet going to race in a wider part of the river - at high water.

About Me
- Lorna Scammell
- Woodbridge, East Anglia - formerly North East England, United Kingdom
- My web log has four strands. It started as a simple sailing log of my voyage from the North east of England in my Southerly 95, LA Girl. As I came further south, the weather and my health deteriorated, so the second strand started, which is a commentary on various beaches and places that I visited. The third strand is about lung cancer. I was diagnosed with advanced lung cancer in August 2009, having been taken to hospital in Ipswich by ambulance - unable to breath. I eventually returned to my boat in Woodbridge and then came ashore to a nice flat by the station. The fourth strand is about life in Woodbridge. I am now sailing a Jaguar 21 called lookfar. I am also sailing dinghies again and now have a Streaker. Note that sailing in the river is harder than sailing at sea. Lorna died in 2013. This blog remains as a reminder of her wonderful character and life.

Clive and I send our best wishes. Good to hear about your progress. We were prompted to check your blog after a conversation over coffee in the Common Room (remember that happy ritual?). Clive has taken up sailing and is going for various basic sailing qualifications. He is being very methodical about it as you would expect. I will be retired and out of here by the end of December. Clive is staying on for a couple more years. I have taken a lot of encouragement from your blog but couldn't even hope to show the same energy, dedication and achievemnt as you have done in retirement - playing Bridge twice a week will be an achievment for me!
