The marina is fast filling up with boats coming in for the winter and there is a smell of stoves burning, which is lovely!
There is a bonfire being built for Nov 5th when there will be a firework party here - hopefully I shall then be able to enjoy a hotdog and some wine / beer!!!!
Looking forward to seeing people again after the op - Carolyn (an old school chum) is going to come up from Birmingham and my brother Colin and Nicky are also coming for a weekend, hopefully before Christmas.
We are off for a long weekend in the van (which is being repaired at the moment) in mid-november down to Stratford with Paul and Rachel and all the dogs (should be some interesting pictures then).
Otherwise we are waiting to hear when Tom and Francesca return from their trip to China - they have now been there nearly 3 weeks and are returning to Germany in a couple of weeks time - it will be SO good to see them again.
We have booked a week in Tenerife just before Christmas to get a bit of sun before the winter chill - hoping that Chloe and Tom & Francesca might be able to come but nothing has been confirmed as yet.
Other than that, life is going on slowly - still enjoying being afloat but are looking at how to draught-proof the boat against the winter winds.
I shall add some pictures from our walks in the peaks - just to keep you interested!
