On Top of the Mast

We are waiting to splash.  Any moment now.  Turning on the computer will hasten the tractor's arrival, of course.  In the meantime, here are a few photos of the boat and boatyard we just had to post up.  It has only taken us 8 years to remember to take a camera up on the annual mast & rigging inspection. 
 

Well, true to form, the tractor arrived to bear the Other Woman to the blue waters of the Ionian Sea.  At the site of Anthony & Cleo's demise at the hands of soon to be Emperor Augustus, no less. All those years ago; it seems more story than truth.  Anyway, our farmyard assembled to bid us farewell and I suspect neither of us will miss Miss Foghorn's (donkey) all night serenade or the mosquitoes.

Yes indeed, a proper farewell parade in our honour

An update:  Our departure has been delayed yet again due to a generator with a mind of it's own.  Wouldn't start, then wouldn't shut down.  Expert guidance is necessary. Keep an eye out for polite commentary on the H460 site.  His Captainship should have lots of free time to update his blog now....
