Hotting up to get going!

Well, Levi's gone to have his wires uncrossed so he can help get the laundry done. Colin comes to service Bella's engine on Saturday, Pete has sorted out the elecrolites in the propulsion battery, cleaned out the engine hold including the gutters under the stern deck, Elizabeth is taking stock in 4-store (deep storage) to visit the wholefood shop and the coffee is ready for collection at the Fairtrade shop. We are getting ready for being OUT. We have not been in the marina long - just over 6 weeks - but it's amazing how quickly we've got used to electricity and easy multi access shopping. So, we're getting ready to rely on ourselves and our foward planning again. And we're having fun just planning! We expect to see James on his way to the USA on Sunday, then set out going north on the Oxford Canal on Sunday afternoon.
