Time to ponder.....

Had to go to another funeral today..... another fellow boater (and close friend) has gone to the great boatyard in the sky.... R.I.P. Andy, his boat will up for sale in the future, his widow will be unable to manage it on her own. The family, however, have plans, n.b. SORREL will have a final trip, before being sold. Friends and family will be invited for its 'final' cruise. Whatever happens I will make sure I am on that cruise!
Meanwhile, our plans continue, the house is still for sell, there has been some interest but no firm offers yet, however, our plans are now made. As from the beginning of June, the contents of the house will be sold, the house will be empty, in the hands of the estate agent, and we will set sail again on GUELROSE, hopefully heading for London and the Olympics, and then who knows where....? There are so many places we want to visit again (70 feet permitting!!) - initial plans suggest CCers for a couple of years, and don't, just don't get me started on extra charges for CCers.... In my opinion there are genuine CCers and then there are people who live on boats as compared to houses, and the two are most definitely different.
Before that, we still have a cruise up the Ashby planned for May with some close friends.... hopefully water supply will not be a problem there....
