BACKACHE FROM HARD WORK BUT WE GET RESULTS – May 11 & 12


BACKACHE FROM HARD WORK BUT WE GET RESULTS – May 11 & 12, Days 18 & 19
We have worked hard physically this week from improving and organising interior spaces, much cleaning, painting, and a multitude of jobs on deck too. We need to stretch backwards often to ease the pain from working in confined spaces or lifting weights.
The weather during the week was good but quite windy in afternoons and feeling cold in the wind but the weekend is almost calm so sails were going up around the marina for attention. That is not possible in stronger winds. I patched a few tiny holes with sail repair tape to avoid greater damage. The mainsail is over 20 years old but still sets well.


We are now ready to release a first photo of our improved and tidy living space !!

Of course the boatyard did not service the outboard motor in the expected timescale so I need to chase them again next week.
One of the pleasures of living in Italy is the food. We squeeze fresh orange juice each morning and will write more about food and drink we enjoy another time. See our Basil plant.
