IT'S THE LITTLE THINGS!

We're really, really excited. After having scoured the Carib for a
pump/motor to replace a knackered one for the aft shower (means that we
can't get rid of water), we've arrived back in Rodney Bay to discover that
there's the promise of the very thing just having arrived in a container and
will be on the shelf at the chandlers here tomorrow! Wow! It may not seem
a lot, but it will be the first big-ticket item what we've been able to buy
off the shelf in a chandlers since we left the UK last year. Those who have
visited us have been very kind in supplying goods from the UK as part of
their weight allowance and that has worked very well indeed, but hopefully
Suzy, Sandra and Robert will be travelling out here without having to do
such work for us (Sandra's got a big list already, but it's mainly bikinis!
Robert's task has been investigating reflective sun-shades for windows). We
are also anticipating the hydraulics hose being replaced on Saturday, so we
will be on our way to Grenada - all things being equal - after the weekend.
