Sure he must have been. We are. No land in sight. And we have not even yet sent out any doves.

Yesterday it was the steel, today it's the machine drawings. And there is no more time. We wait, our eyes on the cloudy horizon, waiting for Jacek and 1000 hours of work miraculously transformed into days showing every single connection, bolts, welds, detail. Without it we are back to wattle says Ms O Branch.

She also says that if another person mentions 25 days to #COP-17 the voices in her head will come out of her mouth.

The image above, sourced in the murky waters of the Commons, is titled 'The Dove Returns to Noah'. It is gouache on board by James Jacques Joseph Tissot.

ms olive branch

Captain's log, dawn: 2 November 2011: Hans Memling's Angel with an Olive Branch was painted in the 15th century in a country that surrounds itself with the strongest of dykes to fend off the increasing tides. I am sure you can guess where that is. (Clue: Europe).

As the hot air continues to rise here on the southernmost tip of darkest Africa and the search for some 13tonnes of the finest steel continues unabated, this image is emblazoned in the crews' hearts and minds after it was pulled from the deep waters of the Wikimedia Commons public domain, as if somehow it was our anchor.

We are all Ark Angels.
