We went got some new bikes yesterday and tried them out going down to the chandler. Good to be back cycling again, much better than the car all the time. Though getting them home was a bit tricky we had one in the boot & one on my lap. Glad it was only 8 miles back to the boat!!

Beautiful weather yesterday & today, starting to pull our hair out with the engineer for the water maker. He has been coming for 3 days now & we are still waiting for his call. Been into the business and they always reckon should be today. So we wait. We are doing small jobs on board, cleaning decks, varnishing the ensign pole. Richard reckons today is the day that he is going to brave the water and go & retrieve his ladder, especially when he went into the chandler last night and he said a new one would be 440 euros!!!!

Both got a bit of the sun yesterday, first time this year. Think it is going to be a lovely long summer.

About:
We have bought a Sun Odyssey 45.2 and is called Why Not. Richard is going to be Captain, (with my permission) and I am going to be cook,navigator and chief bottle washer. So if we get lost, it will be my fault and I will have to walk the plank, especially now that he thinks he is Jack Sparrow. [...]
