Splash down!

Finally - our new 'baby' has arrived in Southampton after a long drive from Scotland and made splashdown at 1pm today (a day earlier than expected) meaning an urgent request from work for a days leave!
Neil was stuck in Crewe so was unable to attend but I had Corrie and Jane for moral support, and really needed it especially after leaving a bag with all my precious goodies for the boat in the taxi!
But back to the happy arrival. - splashdown went so smoothly and after checking for any leaks and tying up fenders we were safely berthed on the dock.
So excited! - tomorrow the mast will be stepped and she will look like a real boat!
