The weather is just right for painting


Yes its time to do some repairs and painting so no peace for me .We have enjoyed a day in the sun and we have made the most of it by topping up our suntan. Tomorrow I will start on the repairs to my dog boxes by replacing some of the hinged flaps before the winter returns ,well it will soon be here as they are advertising Autumn on the Tv.

The work continues


Today I have fitted the new inverter so now we can do the washing once more. Well we brought a new washing machine which will only work from pure sine wave electricity so now I have a modified sine wave inverter to sell for about £200 if any one is interested phone 07960 363240. Tomorrow I might get a day off if I am lucky.

Yet another day working on the boat.


Yes I do work on the boat sometimes today I have installed the new inverter which will power our washing machine. Well at least its kept me dry and away from the pouring rain which is coming down in bucket fulls.

The work is the end.


At last I have fitted the new boiler in the squirrel and new pipe work. I have sealed all but one leak which is on the stove pipe so I must do it tomorrow before the rain comes back. Then I can have a rest before something else goes wrong (the joys of boating they say).

No I have not changed the boat


Well I am back again thing are mad at the moment .We woke Tuesday to find water poring from the squirrel fire and found the boiler had sprung a leak. So much expense new boiler new pipework and unions and now I have to cure the small leaks and get the boat ship shape again. Maybe we will get a chance to go for a cruise( well we hope so).If anyone is interested it is possible to change the boiler without removing the top of the fire .
