Nine Till Four......
Wev'e had a bit of a plan of late and now it's all coming together.
We'll be mooring up at Aynho on power from 1st Nov, until end of Feb, still living on the boat. We were originally going to stay on the canal proper just moving as needed but after talking to far wiser people than us being on shore power seems the best option.
So that means we'll have a lot of spare time and the plan has been to find some work to relieve the boredom.
I already had some part time work in Oxford so Leonie got her CV out and about two days ago and now she is employed starting next Monday...nine till four...
Yeh Haa more money for Beer.....
Today has been a good weather day, no rain ,no cold...
And when the sun departed today.....
The fire was set and inside the warmth soon spread through the boat.....
The sky is clear.....
With plenty of stars promising a fine day tomorrow....
The mist....
Started to roll in followed by a red glow......
I retraced our route, by bus, and went to pick up the race tuned Focus. It'll be handy getting us to work...
My brief from the Missus was to remember that apple tree we saw a few days ago and stop the car and get some apples.
This I did with no off road parking on the 70mph stretch, cars missing my arse by inches. Then the tree had been picked of reachable fruit, no smart ass comments, so grabbing the branches pulling them down whilst standing in knee high stinging nettle was the answer. I managed to get a few...
So....
This is the reward... Apple Crumble... with ice cream of course.....
Tomorrow till Monday practice setting the alarm clock.... for Leonie.........
