Fantatsic weekend!

You know - it was all worth it! The weather could not have been better - glorious sunshine all weekend and I spent much of Saturday in my shorts - wow! It was lovely to see so many new boaters visiting the marina and many signing up.

The evening was awesome! I think we finally shut down amidst boos from the hardened people still left behind at about half twelve!

The sun set behind us as we nestled between the pond and the wildlife bank.

The local sea scouts provided the marquees which provided more than adequate shelter for the sound systems. Our very own Eric provided the live entertainment for the evening and totally 'wowed' us all with his incredible range and repertoire of songs.

Toes were tapped and much dancing took place for hours on end. In amidst of all this, we enjoyed an amazing dancing demonstration from Clive and Sarah on NB Amphora and Peter ended the evening with his awesome singing voice all topped off by the 'Yard of Ale' competition - such incredible talent and an amazing evening with wonderful company!

My friends Derek and Sheila of NB Clarence fame were there and a last minute decision/order to stop on board Khayamanzi for the night rather than have to drive all the way back to Grantham meant that Derek could have a drink and we could enjoy each others' company for a while longer!

Ah well, another busy week ahead! I did manage to get a pump out today, do the ironing, hoover and polish the boat, another load of washing, fill up with water, complete 2 piles of marking and cook a full roast dinner for the evening and for John to come round and share with me.
