Beez
   Bear went to work each morning and it
was fun to have him back to 404 each lunchtime and evening. He took these
pictures to show me his ‘progress’ during the week. The
pedestal was the systematically taken to pieces.
 The lounge,
at first sight, didn’t look too bad to my eyes.
   The sea
berth mmm, cluttered shelf but OK. Office,
work in progress and the desk area ready to be
stripped.
   Grey tank
and bedroom floor, en suite and potting shed.
 Our bed
does look a bit too busy to be used and backs up why we had to move
out.
 Meanwhile, outside, the girl has been sanded and readied for her undercoat next
week.
  So what have I been up to this week.
After settling our stuff in 404 and moving it around a couple of times until it
felt right, I made one of the dining room tables into a desk. Three laptops were set to work all day to back up all
our films, music, photographs and documents, satisfying to see the Pelican case begin to fill until all was done. Film, TV and
Police series, specials and audiobook lists updated, printed and filed. The new
week will have to be all about catching up on blogs and the following week I
will begin the ever growing sewing pile.
  One evening Bear came back with a
quite distinct new feature on his forehead.........
On the close-up you can all now see why I affectionately call him Sweaty Boy.......
  On Saturday there was a wedding
reception in the building opposite, for a solid hour and a half there was a
symphony of what sounded like Kazoo’s or perhaps just comb and paper played at
full volume. Thank heavens for my IPod, good audiobooks and great earphones.
Thankfully, by nightfall all went quiet.
   Bear came back this evening with a
triumphant look on his face. Last week he had removed the
old limpet mine (forward facing sonar) which had a huge profile and
something we always had to remember to tell the strop bearers when Beez was
hoisted by crane. The new one went in easily after I had
overcome the old one inch, which needed to be plugged before re-drilling the new
two inch new hole. Well, the new limpet
mine certainly looks lovely and a much neater
profile. If all the new equipment looks as good the
Beez will be a very happy girl.
ALL IN ALL A STEP IN THE
RIGHT DIRECTION..........
A GOOD FIRST
WEEK |
