Still waiting for spare part for sail from
Lagoon.Making most of nice weather and time on our hands to catch up with family
we have not seen for some time.
Samantha had to visit Chiropractor as she has
damaged her ankle whilst training for Sandhurst so she is resting up at the
present time!!!
Lots of visits to the internet cafe and making
numerous calls to the UK.Seems as if we have been here ages and although it has
been nice seeing the family we are keen to move on.The weather forecast for our
passage to Tenerriffe is good at the moment so hopefully the part will turn up
soon. Chance and Trinity arrive Tenerriffe on 19th December so
we do have a deadline to meet.
Gibraltar is quite poor with regards to marine
servicing so any major repairs\and spare parts we will in future either get via
the internet or from Spain,wish we had known this before
departing!!!
Met lots of yachties with pets on board so have
decided to ship Lilly our cat out when the girls come over at Xmas.Having to
purchase special carriage box for the airline as Iberia accept cats as hand
luggage! She will be very impressed and I am sure she will keep the girls
amused during their flight.
 Deidre Mark John Tyrone Amber Chereen andYvonne on
their maiden visit to the boat at Marina Village!   Are we sure????
 Lets ring someone and find
out!
