Hello again.
Having been iced in and 'cabined up' over the winter months it is now time to take stock and decide what comes next.
The accounts have been done, the boat needs some attention as there's quite a bit of paintwork to sort out (I did knock her around a bit last year!). The bottom needs blacking and there are various bits of equipment that need fitting - but it will all get done.
I'm hoping to be on my way again at the start of May. I was going to take the same route as last year - but now I'm not so sure if I want to do that. A lot will depend on what happens over the next two months.
I do now have a lovely professional Mama Don't web site - thanks to my friends at www.fotofire.com and I'm working to get that tidied up so that I'm ready for anything.
The story of last year's trip is still awaiting completion - then I will put it onto the website as one document for anyone who is interested... it was a great trip, lots of fun, lots of hard work and a great feeling of satisfaction at having completed it!
At this moment in time I'm banging my head on a lot of brick walls - but I reckon my head is stronger and will win in the end.
Linda
