Oh, The Frustrations

First of all an apology for not posting any news.

So much has been happening but not to the boat, since last posting.

Our builders went on holiday for two weeks to China, only the bosses not the workers.
On their return they had had their house burgled, not a pleasant end to a holiday.

They have had some problems with boats already finished and on the water, all to do with equipment supplied by others, it is so frustrating that equipment is sometimes not able to work correctly, when taken out of the box.

We are waiting for our daughters house sale to complete, living there at the moment so will have to live elsewhere, our daughter is due to have her baby next Sunday (expect that will be late as well).

The dog had a CVA (stroke) two weeks ago but is on the mend, thanks to the vet and some drugs.

The bank rate is expected to drop, so less spending money.

Other than that all is well and we are happy to be together.

The dog is do marvellously, just sleeps a little more, well he is nearly 16.

Move delayed, buyer pulled out, he is in the Navy and got re-posted at short notice.
