Still Cold.

There was yet another blanket of snow awaiting us yesterday as we went into work.


The yard is frozen in - ice seems to be getting thicker and with the additional snow each evening (it seems to be each evening now), we'll soon be needing waders again to cross the carpark.



Here's a shot of the large chunks of ice that I pulled out of the ferry boat on Thursday and threw onto the frozen dyke. You can see why the ferry service has been suspended....





Galley Fever

Work continued on the galley in Tranquil. Here you can see the old cabinets having been ejected from within with some of the old framing on top. Waste-not-want-not, we're reusing some of  this timber for supports, battening and so on.
 


Progress always seems slow when we're in the throws of a project, but in reality, it's going quite well.

We've now got all the cabinets in place, leveled and properly fixed. The new new oven has been pre-fitted and a new power line is in for the oven igniter/light and new fridge. The next big job is to fit the new worksurface.

Must be freezing working out there but new galley looking very smart in deed.

Hopefully the weather will ease this week.

It's really not been that cold at all - certainly nothing stopping us working on things like this.

Where it really causes problems is in using products that like to be used in +7c - we can't paint anything.
