Hi Everyone, I am attempting my first blog............................
Well winter has arrived in Brighton with the temp below 10deg for the first time. Time to get the winter woolies out of the bilges and aired out. I've been busy making lists........ anyone contemplating the great escape will know what that means. The endless slavery to lists and more lists. I've divided them into three things:
What we must do - based on boat safety, and costly items
What we should do - based on cost mainly and also time to do them
What we could do - the nice to haves or the do on the way jobs

I'll explain more on my reasoning for each of the things in forthcoming blogs
ciao amigos
