We have a new recruit, this lovely little ginger kitten seems to have made Guiding Light his home. He is not at all concerned about all the noise and activity! 

Progress has been good.  The girls are making good progress with removing the paint below decks, they will need a few job soon!  Zaka and I have been stripping the furniture off the deck, everything is going to reset.  I also finished servicing the winches.

Now I need to decide how much effort to put into cleaning and polishing the bronze.

We were delighted to see Karl and Kara, with us in our profile picture on Facebook. Jerry also paid us a visit to see progress.

More later….

Back to work

Well, when I wrote my last post we expected to be in the U.K. for two weeks.  As many of you know, we were gone almost two months!  The main purpose of the trip was to see my mother and let my sister take a weeks holiday.  Sadly mother deteriorated rapidly and died on the 20th January.  I am really pleased we were there at the end.

Unfortunately my 1930 born mother never saw our 1930s boat, so the photograph is her in my 1930 MG

We are now back and have just started work on Guiding Light.  So far I have been focusing on winches!
