Funnily enough, we're still here in Blue Haven
Well, the ice is 5 inches deep at Bella's bow, and though we are as toasty as ever, part of the reason is that we work hard to stay warm! Josie clearly thinks that holding Pete's foot and cuddling his knee is the way. Pete shows our morning fashion statement (as Squirrel heats up) of thermal leggings, socks, dressing gown, hand mitts and thermal shirt. Elizabeth has her own lacy version, of course. Breakfast is eaten in the lounge by the fire as warmth takes over and when we're both sufficiently warmed up, we brave the shower. However, the shower is an every other day affair, swapping with sponge bath, as we are conserving water. The pipes in the marina are frozen and we may have to fill our hold with water can by water can from the single tap which works!
Watch this space.
