Just thought I'd update you all- we didn't crash through the floor and break anything this weekend. Though we did dismantle the bedroom- ripped out the badly constructed bed frames. We found some ballast-like iron on one side of the bow doors (deck level) and nothing the other side. The side that was free has the stove- so could it have been moved when that was installed. We found two batteries also on the other side- was the ballast move to accommodate them? I would have thought it would be easier to just move the batteries- the ballast was crazy heavy. (As are the batteries) The walls that back in from the bow are no longer damp- as we have sealed the doors. However, the floor is sodden. Could this be from the door leak- or is it a possible thing for the water tank to be leaking? The floor will need replacing. Concerningly, there was not a small amount of water under the engine in the bilge and the whole engine hatch compartment needs a good clean. Eik! Next weekend we install the new bed frame and sleep no longer on the dinette. However, the dinette was very comfy, especially for our cats that we took with us. Yes we took the cats- two reasons really. 1. We are insane and 2. The plumber was coming to our flat to do some work and needed them out. (But mostly number 1) The cats usually don't sleep with us, so this was a treat for them- a treat that they reminded us of every couple of hours by jumping on us in our sleep- purring- curling up- asking for pats and basically being annoyingly gorgeously murderable! (Photos to follow) Next weekend we don't bring the cats!

It only seems like last week we lost Gabby, it's actually been 5 months. This morning we lost her brother Zebby. Zebby was 15, and has not been the same since we lost Gabby. He passed away this morning. Dave took him to the top of Wittenham Clumps, an bronze age fort near Day's Lock where we were moored, and buried him under a lovely Elderberry tree with bright white bark that you can see for miles. Needless to say we are heartbroken. We knew his time was short and he hasn't been been well, but it's just so hard to prepare yourself. I miss him dearly.

Hello All, One of our cats has gone missing from the Leighton buzzard area we are based near to grove lock and just wondered if anyone is also in the area /journeying to and from this area if you do happen to see a black and white cat with a red collar and a quite distinctive white moustache if you could let me know it would be greatly appreciated ! We are getting quite worried about her. We are new to cruising and so are the cats does anyone have experience with cruising and how cats adapt to the change of scenery ? They seemed to take like a duck to water until now Also will try and include a picture. thanks so much for your time!
