Oct. 21, 2007 - It's Been a Long Time

I can't believe it is over a month since we were onboard Emjaytoo!

A lot has happened since then - primarily, I have changed my job and that has entailed a change of car which has caused a number of cancelled trips. Then this weekend we were going to go over but it was the Rugby World Cup in France and since England were in the Final (they lost!), we couldn't get a crossing.

Anyway, the good news is we have the crossing all booked up for next weekend - and at the ridiculous price of £29 return, with Norfolkline. Can't wait - well, we were getting withdrawal symptoms!

Whilst hoping to get a good weekend's sail, we also need to sort out some things with the marina. We got the bill for fixing the TV aerial - which included dropping the mast - the cost is horrendous! But also includes other things like taking out & refixing the Autohelm, so we need to get to the bottom of that. We also need to talk to the marina about lifting the boat for the winter. So lots of things to sort out.
