It seems to have gone very quiet on here recently.....I wonder why !!. I have been working my way through the jobs list and find a remaining 20 or after the update this evening. They are all however fairly small things and so I'm feeling reasonably happy at the moment. I have started a “booking in” system meaning that once things have been “booked in” to the garage, then they stay there and move to the boat and to the boat only. All the non-perishable provisions have been bought and it looks as though storage wont be a problem (although sorting this is one of the 20 jobs on the list !). I had an engine scare a couple of weeks ago but it turns out to have been nothing other than a faulty oil pressure switch which has been replaced. Pipedream is now more or less ready, but heck does she need a really good scrub. Need to look too at the AIS which seems to be receiving only an intermittent GPS signal ….. another one for the list.
I am planning to sail round to Plymouth from the east coast w/c 5th May then back over this way for a couple of weeks to sort some work, family and sailing issues (planning a dash over to Ostend), then back down on the 28th. I am sure the next few weeks will absolutely fly by, as have the well, last 18 months or so since I first came across the Jester Challenge, and oh so foolishly started telling people I had entered.
I guess we are all pretty much doing the same thing at the moment, but how happily and how confidently ?. I guess I am at about 6/10 on the “feel good scale”. Where are you ? . . . and if you are aready tied up and waiting at Plymouth with not a care in the world, then the beers are on you
