Wintry Weekend

Well still no snow here in Sheffield, however the weekend forecast is for more wintry weather on the way.

Despite worries earlier in the week that we wouldnt be able to make it to Lincoln at the weekend, we have as usual packed the car ready for the weekend and will set off tonight with the aim of reaching the boat.

It is forecast to be cold tonight so we will land at the marina, stick on the heating, unpack our gear and head for the warmth of the pub for a lovely evening meal.

We are both looking forward to a wintry weekend afloat. Nothing quite beats sitting in the cockpit in the warmth with a beer watching the water slowly freeze and the snow fall silently outside.

Still no sign of the LED cockpit lighting so again a job we can not complete this weekend but we do need to fill up the diesel tank to help reduce condensation and thus water in the fuel tank. A job that will lighten the wallet a little. She has not been filled up since we came back from our excursion on the Wash in August!!

Happy winter boating.
