06:30 Easter Sunday
Never let it be said we don’t take these things seriously – the Rev. Tom was up early and beat everyone to the Easter Egg hunt. The result can be seen below!
We are told that Anta and Elaine felt chocolate was very much the order of the day.
The sailors, who had also risen early, were disappointed to find a strong calm in force – absolutely no wind at all!
So what did they do? They took the other skiff (Bluejacket) and enjoyed an Easter row – ably led by Alan. Obvious really.
This sounds like an excuse for a challenge – sailors versus rowers. How about it?

And why not? This August there is to be a race between a Thames punt and Venetian gondola, repeating a similar race in 1926. In this event the crews change boats after the first race, with the gondolier punting and vice versa in the second race. Perhaps the Blakeney rowers and sailors should adopt the same rule.
