Today we did not get up until after 9am, Obi then went with Sonia for a poo walk while I started the engine to warm the water and then had a shower, at last I can hear you saying, when they returned it was Sonia turn in the shower while Obi had his breakfast. We then decided to take a walk to see if we could find a place that served breakfast, that was on a plate, a rarity around here.
Early start for Sonia and our visitors today as Sonia eldest two children Nick and Jason are both running in the Stratford-On-Avon ½ marathon and 10K respectfully. Sonia went along to provide moral support for them and help with the children (that is her superpower). For me, I went back to bed, or to be truthful just turned over and tried to sleep while they got ready, then after it was…
Today, we are anticipating the arrival of Nick, Sarah and their two children for an overnight stay. Unfortunately, Mary will be departing us and we will see her in October when we return home to Weymouth. The day started as expected with Mary and Sonia taking Obi for his poo walk, with a little ball-throwing in a local park. After I tidied up and got dressed, we walked over to the local Nero…
Today, my job was to find out why our inverter had stopped working, so after Obi’s poo walk, Sonia and Mary went to Nero for a coffee – Mary very kindly brought a coffee and bacon roll back for me. So with the engine bay open and the multimeter in hand, I checked the power supply from the batteries – to make sure the massive 250A fuse had not blown, though I’m sure the neighbourhood would…

When Obi retuned he had his breakfast we then walked to Nero in Bridley Place for coffee, I returned with Obi to the boat while the girls went to the Birmingham City Library and then up New Street to the Bull…
Lazy start today, did not wake up till 9:15am, slowly dressed and ready for the day, Mary and Sonia took Obi for his poo walk, while I prepared breakfast, a favourite today, bacon in rolls, the girls popped into Nero on the way back and got some coffee for us. A chat over breakfast, and then we seem to have gone back to dozing, the day started brightly, but soon clouded over…
Another early start, but this time as I had to get into Nantwich and meet the DPD courier who was bringing my new alternator from the loverly people at Auto Electrical Supplies. I had asked them to send the parcel to the DPD pickup/drop off point which happened to be in the postoffice. I was unsure how this was going to work, so I decided to be early and see if I could catch the van and make…
