Happy New Year! We have got quite a lot done over the holidays. Pete was hoping to weld the new hatches on to the fore deck and to paint the office now that he has cleaned all the old bitumen off, before laying the floor joists which have all been cut to size. However, weather stopped play!

This is going to be the view that we will wake up to once we are on our mooring. Isn't it beautiful? Imagine sat in the wheelhouse, wood burner on, glass of something warming in hand........... Okay so we're a way off yet, but a girl can dream!

Alfie is thoroughly enjoying the snow! He can't quite make out where the snowballs disappear to when they are thrown!
