Gaskets

Our engine is back together again.
With no 'spare' nuts or washers.
And it's sounding sweet.
Sorted.

  2. this *is* our travels, Dad. Bit 'stop-start-stop', but we're gradually making our way up the thames. Once we're on top of the problems, it should be smoother sailing. Bit frustrating at times, but I still wouldn't want to be anywhere else.

  3. hi son not to worry live life at a leisurely pace and enjoy it, you'll get to where you want to be all in good time and when all the wee problems are ironed out it will all be plain sailing and fun, take care, dad & lesleyann

    in a perverse kind of way, even taking care of the problems is fun. but it's not too good for the relaxation levels. never thought i'd have to learn enough mechanics to be able to strip and replace a head gasket. but now it's done, the knowledge is there. let's hope i don't have to do it again. it's less stress being in a marina, and paying our way, than overstaying our welcome on somebody elses private moorings, anyway. naturally, we're both hoping to move on, as soon as possible.

    when there's something interesting to photograph, we will. no worries.
