Home Thoughts From Abroad

Sal Darago was lifted out on Monday 20 April and was moved to her new home by a very smart travel lift.

Kathy and Jeremy went to live in a basic, but spotless apartment on the marina site. Fortunately it was a short walk from the apartment to SD and work could go on apace. The link for the computer was weak at the flat, but Kathy had some success.

All the fenders were washed, the keels ground and repainted three times with Primocon. Almost all of the jobs were completed, Custom and Immigration visited, bills paid and now we wait for the booked taxi which will take us to Port of Spain airport on Wednesday morning at 0330. We hope to be home on Thursday afternoon at about 1500.

Thank you all for your support.

“O, to be in England now that April 's there,
And whoever wakes in England
Sees, some morning, unaware,
That the lowest boughs and the brushwood sheaf
Round the elm-tree bole are in tiny leaf,
While the chaffinch sings on the orchard bough
In England—now!”

Home Thoughts from Abroad by Robert Browning, 1845 Northern Italy.
