Bulletin

Well here we are 10 days or so on from our last message to the world.

Mary has been making good progress since we arrived here, in pain when trying to do anything for the first week.  We had the Doctor out and he examined her and said nothing broken 'just keep taking the tablets and let nature take its course.'    Meanwhile exercising to keep the muscles from wasting!
Just today (wed) Mary got dressed for the first time, and sat up in chair, so we now feel the end is in sight, we may even get off the boat and back to Buckby before many days are over.

Meanwhile, when not tending the sick I've been getting on with lots of boating jobs.  The picture shows my bow thruster tube and motor, waiting for the engineer to give it a bit of TLC.  Its given me the chance to de rust and paint the bilge all around it, with some very smelly (and probably toxic paint).





Some of my neighbours here have lots of bird feeders, and throughout the day they are full of Tits of various sorts, and the odd crow or to trying their luck.

We are very lucky having such good friends here and at home, so we have had no shortage of help and company. Thanks to you all.
