This one's for Janet

That's Janet off Sanity, who asked me earlier this afternoon why the blog wasn't up yet. Hope you are enjoying that Special K, Jan...

Anyway, we've had a busy but rewarding day, much as adumbrated yesterday. Elanor and I went to the Burton Washlands with the hound this morning, leaving Sheila to carry on in the lodge. Having given Sal a good run we headed back to the marina.

Elanor then went off to get on with her shopping whilst I gave what help I could to Sheila. It's mostly done now, bar a last load of towels in the tumble drier and the lounge floor that still needs Henry's attention.

We ambled back to the boat, stopping for ice creams from the shop on the way. As might be expected, there were loads of folk around in the public area, especially looking at the New and Used boats. The economy must be looking up.

New and Used seem to have more and more wide beams here these days; I guess this is the best of their locations for showing them off.

Back at the boat, we had a natter with Jacky and Jim who were polishing their boat; they moor two spaces over from us, on what would be the other side of Black Pearl if she was here just now.

We'll have another quiet night tonight, methinks. It's been a hard working day.
