Lucy arrived at our house to follow me to Burnham in her car.

The plan was to leave it there and go to Ramsholt in my car toe collect Sirenia.

All was going well until we got onto the twisty roads in the depths of Essex.

I was quite happy tooling along at a comfortable speed and had not thought of the handling of Lucy's little car.

She was working hard to keep up and then managed to spin off the road on a left hand bend.

No real damage done.

A bit of a bent wing and a tyre full of grass.

WE changed her tyre and made sure that nothing was rubbing and carried on to Burnham.

The rest of the day went as planed and we ended up on board with shopping for the weekend.

All ready for an early start in the morning.

Underway by 06:10

Headed south and down the Wallet, over the spitway into the Crouch.

Arrived at Burnham about 14:00.

Allocated a buoy for the week.
