Sunday morning, Lough Key

A beautiful morning on the lake-even the teenagers are happy!

The beasts are laid!

There they lie in their rightful places, I think it was worth the skinned knuckles!

Les objets terrible!

Here are the beasts that have caused me so much anguish and soreness. There they lie just waiting to be trimmed, as they would but they will look magnificent when installed.....maybe!

Claire's birthday

Claire's birthday today. Have to pull out all the stops. Did the old Strawberries with Greek yoghurt and honey + Bubbly bit for the breakfast in bed (before the school run), now have to create the miracle dinner that no one will moan about! Now, where is that medal

Bad move

Should I have started this! No,no and no again. Let me tell you. Decided to replace Lino that's been stuck down for 35 years in the boat. This won't take long says he..... Ha ha, funny man. 3 days later and I'm still at it. Have chisel will travel. Still 2 sections to go, bleeding hands, aching elbows etc. ah but the bits I have finished look mighty. It's red by the way!

Rock and roll

No sleep, straight to Dublin airport after last night's gig for the 06.00 to Stansted and on to Aarhus for the last Gilbert O'Sullivan concert in Viborg tonight. Anyone got a box of Maguire & Pattersons to prop open the poor ol' eyelids!
On the water again this weekend (hopefully). The kids are all keen anyway.

Brrrrr!

Saturday so it must be Cootehall. Took the boat for our first overnight, she's running "Sweet as a nut". Had great intentions of visit Henrys drinking emporium but alas too much of the sav. bl. and I fell asleep. So much for that!
Wind got up Sunday morning and had a fairly bumpy ride back to Albert lock but most enjoyable. Saw only one other hardy boat person out!
