Hey guys - Thanks for the best wishes... it's all gone like clockwork - I don't know why everyone was so stressed about it all We finished at the solicitors around 10.... dashed home to "wait"... and I gave in and phoned the haulier around 10.02... he confirmed that despite the yard expecting him in the afternoon - they WERE picking her up at 10 ... this came as a shock to the yard who had apparently been blacking her!!! So - "uncured" but black none the less, she was loaded and I got a call from Chris saying she'd been on her way for about 40 mins by 11.30.... (by this time we were up at the mooring/marina and I was pacing around, talking shite to anyone that would listen... Andy, his sister and kids - MINUS husband went into the pub and had a coffee whilst I continued pacing watching the approach road. about 12.31, the trailer arrived and proceedings began. I'll post some photos on a thread in a short while - were having a bottle of bubbly just now. The short version is she's arrived, un damaged, is still afloat and the wind could have been worse (not a lot though)...
