We get told off…
Monday 11th December Day 142
OMG it’s Saturday 16th December and I haven’t even started writing this week’s blogs ((NOT AGAIN!!!)) I know, I was so much more organised when we were cruising as I made sure I wrote the blogs at the end of the day so I knew what had happened and now, every day seems to be merging into one… right, here goes trying to remember ((OH LORD, buckle up for the biggest load of nonsense you’ve ever read!))
Also, I think in the time/space continumumism it will actually be Christmas day when you read this if you’re reading the daily blog and not the weekly one, ((I’m confused!)) so Happy Christmas and more importantly; happy birthday to my friend Christine!
Right, to Monday the 11th Dec. Chris is in the bow grinding ((Erm, wait just one minute that kind of talk is for OnlyFans not this channel and certainly not on Christmas day!)) You have a dirty mind, I meant using the new angle grinder to grind the metal! ((Thank goodness I’ve got all sorts of images in my head. Think I need to book a counselling session!)) Are you finished? ((Well, my circuits have just exploded so yes)) He is cracking on with ANGLE grinding the metal in the bow when the marina boss turns up to tell him off. I’m inside in my dressing gown knuckling down to some writing when I hear voices so stay hidden.
It turns out we shouldn’t be using electric tools and doing noisy jobs like this in the marina. Which is a bit of a pain as ideally we need to be hooked up to electric. Other marinas haven’t had a problem with it as long as you’re considerate; which we are. Anyway, apparently it was in the terms and conditions but I checked and we never received those from what I can see in my inbox. The guy is not grumpy about it at all as we didn’t know it wasn’t allowed and we apologised. Luck was on our side though as Chris had literally just finished most of what he needed to do. It would have been a nightmare if he was part way through. He stopped work and hoovered the area clearing most of the dust away. It is now ready for the rust treatment and filler before painting. We might have to do a little more just to finish off so will have to cruise out of the marina, onto the cut and then come back again.
That’s pretty much it for the day as I crack on with some more writing and we tidy up from the boat jobs. Everything we normally have stored in the bow; coal, logs and bike stuff are now in the stern so it’s all getting a little cramped but we cannot put the stuff back in there until it’s painted and had time to dry so probably when we get back from Jersey!
We hope you’ve had/have a wonderful Christmas day and remember if you’re really bored and looking for something to watch our new Christmas vlog should either be live or will be live. ((I don’t like this time space continumuism it makes us all as confused as you normally are! Welcome to Peachy’s brain!))
Until tomorrow. X
