OK, 7 days to D day, departure that is. be a doddle, just a few million quids worth of yachts to untangle ourselves from, turn a round a boat thats nearly as long as the Caley is wide, negotiate a load of locks and bridges and then hit the sea... in a boat that so far we've (well me) driven about, ooohh, must of been 6 inches, maybe a foot, when I threw it in gear to see if it was working. It'll be a breeze!
Got the 2nd mortgage sorted out to fill the 4 cavernous fuel tanks. That said, the way diesel prices are going up, we can probably sell whats left at a profit by the time we get back. The Victualing operation is now nearing completion, got 2 packs of instants bovril, a tin of hot dogs and some water biscuits. Have stuck some charts on the wall at mission control (our kitchen) so the bairns can track our progress. Can't wait!
