Our guests are due to arrive shortly, and Velvet Lady is now back together again gleaming with her newly varnished floors and painted heads.  Whilst we were painting and varnishing we stayed in an aparthotel ashore and had to get used to strange things like putting the plug in the sink before washing up.  Luxury was to come back at the end of a hard days work and relax in the bath with a G and T and a book.  Fortunately the hotel had loads of hot water.

Whilst we were busy during the day, Richard and I had plenty of time in the evenings to start thinking about next year (2011) when the boat will need to come out of the water for antifouling again.  Planning the dates to do this meant we had to decide what we were doing for Christmas and New Year with the boat and when.

We will again spend the winter in Lanzarote and run 7 night Xmas and New Year trips aboard.  These will be similar to this year and the details are now posted on our website and available for booking.  We cannot guarantee the weather, but I think we can safely say it will not snow!  And talking of snow – we quite like a bit of snow in the right place and so are  also planning a trip to the slopes for January 2011

Seems a long way away, but
