Went to work as usual. Did an 11.5 hour shift (so 1.5 hours of paid overtime- just need 3.5 more hours and Red Marauder is completely paid for, on the road) and of that 11.5 hours I spent 2.5 hours working and 9 hours sitting around on the internet. It's tough but someone has to do it. Tried to get some more aggregate but it was all frozen in the bag so must wait for more benign weather conditions.
Tomorrow is payday, had my pay advice by email today and had underestimated how much overtime I did this month so it's a fair whack which means I should be able to put some into the 2022 cruising fund. The end of this week marks the half-way point in my Winter stint, I'll start thinking about a cruising plan in December.

Thanks. Another beautiful day out here. Locked down a flight in snow flurries yesterday - which became loads of snow as I eventually managed to find an easy mooring for my gimpy dog. Frozen in this morning, an amazing red sunrise and picturesque fields all around.

Measuring up for a section of new fencing which storm Alrewas destroyed, (is that name correct or is that a very nice canal side town?).
Gave the stove a good clean out as weve kept it in for a few nights and it gets a bit choked when we do that.
Pretty hum drum day really.

Hope all's well Telemachus ... let us know and try and enjoy your day Rog Thanks. You’d think by now they could have phoned us, but being old they probably don’t realise you can charge your phone in the car! Although to be fair a lot of phone masts are not working so maybe they can’t get a signal. Of course if they had an old fashioned phone that didn’t need mains power, they could probably have used the land line. one thing I've always insisted on at home is a corded phone plugged in somewhere. We've all got phones but In an emergency it might just be useful.

Here we have all the sockets but no connection to the outside world 😯 Can't see the point of paying ££££ to BT for an inferior service.😱
