Wigrams Turn Marina


Just a short cruise today in dry conditions to moor in Wigrams for a few days. Kevin sorted us out a good pontoon close to the facilities, especially useful is the laundry where Sue has spent the day washing and drying everything in sight, even the shirt off my back. 

The umbilical shore power cable has been inserted into FL's electrical loom, for non boaters this will run all the electrical appliances, keep the batteries topped up, allow us to use the immersion heater and the electric kettle.

The ever helpful Enterprise picked me up promptly to collect the hire car, I have had a trip to B&Q for some paint brushes and white spirit. 

Uncle Roy's boys are doing rather well in the friendly against Peru at Wembley, as I type they are 3-0 up.

We will leave about 9am tomorrow for the drive down south and the Aviva Premiership rugby final at Twickenham.
