The port side hull was blackened, after which Harvey was showered,
while Brenda cleaned inside the boat. We then had a slow cruise to Streethay
Wharf where the boat will be for the next 3-4 weeks in a poly-tunnel having the
roof repainted. The tunnel is still occupied by another boat so at present
Bridge Street is alongside a pontoon waiting.
Brenda went with Harvey to visit the lady he will be staying with. He
is going to be spoilt rotten so no worries there.
Tomorrow we leave for our holiday in the US. We catch the 14:13 train
out of Lichfield for London Heathrow, where we spend the night in a hotel
before flying to Washington DC at 11am. The holiday is an organised tour, with
Riveria Travel, taking in Washington, New York, Niagara Falls and Toronto,
before flying home from Toronto.
So, no blogs until we arrive back on or about 13th
September.
