Quiet day, except for the wind

I thought I'd better do a post myself today; though it's tempting to say "Why keep a dog and blog yourself?", except, of course, she's not my dog, and I won't be seeing her again until tomorrow, when we're scheduled to go over to Elanor's.

Thing is, I've not got a lot to report. The person who won the bidding for my Sony Reader finally ran out of time to pay for it, so I've relisted it. Sheila took a load of washing across to the main building and tumbled it, thus saving us a load of hassle and condensation from drying it in the boat.

£1.25 seems like a reasonable price to pay for 30 minutes that finishes it all off.

Canal Boat was for sale over there, and earlier we had walked down to the other end of the village to buy an Independent.

So that's about it, really; a quiet day, with even the wind slowly easing down, and a quiet evening to follow. Sometime next week we'll need to move the boat across the marina to pump out and get some more coal, so we're hoping the present weather pattern takes a break and gives us some high pressure stuff, with calm, sunny weather.

Just as long as it doesn't freeze, of course.
