I'm going to do something for sure. It needs a good clean underneath where its cone down the motorway. Aframe can go on. Gell repairs on console will happen this week early next week. Start sorting out what we've got and what we need. Anchor stowage needs addressing. Blah blah blah

Better go careful! Lots of "overly close families" in that area ... Almost as bad as Glastonbury

Might have hit a slight snag. She doesn't want to retire yet. Fecking martyr. I know that Fiona is a strange one but I didn't know how strange till now

She doesn't want to leave her customers without finding someone else to overlap, have to admire her for that, I had a cash buyer who wanted it for a new build so didn't need a survey or estate agents, her choice quite possibly has cost me around 110k this week, got to love her

Yes Biffer but after recent events and the many years past, she s 100% committed to yourself , a very small price to pay for a good other half!

Exchange with a delayed completion. Will allow the boss the time she needs to handover.
