Well, it's only proper that after you drug us crew all along on your pond crossing that you not kick us back to our shores upon your arrival! Thanks for inviting us to stay on for the next leg!
Richard, tomorrow history might be made in the UK with the Scottish vote for independence. Keep us posted as to the local feelings on this situation.
There is another traveler a bit like yourself that has taken on the challenge of crossing the Atlantic, but the other direction from England to the US. His name is Colin Hales, his average speed was about 100 kt faster than yours in a 600 lb KR2 homebuilt plane. He was in Oshkosh for the EAA fly-in and now in California for a gathering of other KR plane builders. Here is his blog, to make reading it easier, use your cursor to highlight the text to change the text from dark blue to white on the black background.
KR-2 Worldtour: August 2014

Bye the way, a few winters back, they had 120 kts on this dock from the west.
Good morning Richard, How does the weather look for today to get underway? Do you plan to travel straight thru or anchor overnight somewhere?
Now I better understand why the Krogens are so salty.
That is pretty coastline....
As long as there is not a storm and the engine is working.
Was that a building on the cliff in the post 50 photos or just more rock?
Later,
Dan
Richard, remember that when the good Lord made time he made plenty of it, you won't use it all up, stay cool, work with nature and take your time.
The 5 most lonely places on this earth are the desert, the arctic's, the mountain's the sky and the sea. I've sampled them all and the sea is the most fear some.
Not for nothing are sailors the most God fearing people.
Stay safe, the tidal ranges can be fearsome on the next leg of your journey.
I'll be following in your wake next July in Snow Mouse en route to Dunkirk..
Fair winds and safe harbours.
