Great system here for restaurants with Covid rules, they
are not allowed to have you dine on the premises but you may order and eat
outside off their premises where tables have been set up by them. Very good
burger last night with sunny side up egg.
1st thing took 4 sails for repair will go back in the
morning to get an idea of price and maybe haggle a bit.
Today bilges dried out some area were very wet, nearly
30 liters sponged up. Further investigations required initially think comes
from the rails leaking at the stern as the engine sump is also full of water
time will tell. Stores supplies all re-distributed and know what we have left,
biscuits in good supply, alarmingly chocolate supply is nil, must have got
victualling wrong.
Have a man cleaning salt from hull as just washing with
water and brush did not work. Took me back to Saudi days haggling over price he
gives to start with and all the excuses it is that much. Eventually got 70%
knocked off. The job he has done so far excellent.
John is becoming very literary with all the reading he
has done so far. All I have read is about one chapter of a book.
Tomorrow is a holiday here so not sure what will be
open.
At night keep dreaming still sailing and need to trim
the spinnaker and getting it wrong.
