Saws, floors and Visitors.

The first two pieces look ok!


Surprise surprise!!

A quick trip into Henley, he said...I need a new saw, he moaned... Well, fair enough John had laid half the floor using a now VERY blunt saw, so off we went...on our quick trip.We left at 9am. and returned by 5pm. after an eventful day in which he half froze to death, lost his woolly hat, almost lost his glasses, met up with an old school friend and, oh yes, bought a saw.
Lovely to see you John and Janet, a great surprise!

  2. If you need some other tools to finish your floor-project I can send them to you from NZ, good prices, good stuff! Just phone me, no worries mate. It will take some shipping-time but since you are retired....Love, Marc.

  3. I think, we had not so a bad idea to go to the southern hemisphere for the winter.It's very pleasant and it will not be the last time!
    do you have warm enough on the boat?
    We have a great time down under!

    1. Swimmingly? !! Neither of us has fallen in yet, though we both came close on the trip up to Henley!!! And , yes, it is indeed John Gill who had read the blog and decided to try and find us. He and Janet often walk the Thames footpath so set off to look for the boat.We weren't that difficult to find as we were moored just by the car park!!Great surprise.
