Well, the forecast said it was going to be wet, and it surely has been. We’ve spent the day lurking in the boat, mainly, coming out only to greet the returning crew of Islay (Paul and Cherry) and to service her, and then later on to move La Suvera out of the yard and tie her alongside Islay.
This enables Ian Grindrod to bring his boat in for the weekend. The rain wasn’t so much of a problem given that we’d got all dressed up in waterproofs (though my trousers are now leaking so badly they’re going to have to be replaced) but the wind was on occasion very fierce.
Otherwise, Sheila spent a chunk of time this morning checking the bank accounts, her regular first of the month task, and we’ve been sitting by the fire, reading.
So, not a lot to report, really, just glad we were prepared. The forecast is better for tomorrow, so a trip into Poynton, probably, and perhaps taking Sanity Again out of the yard to get a pump out. We’re pushing the tank right up to full, to check that the new tank gauge sender is accurate at the top end. (I.e., does it show full before the tank is overflowing?)
