Mishaps and Memories

Dec. 5, 2006 - umhhhh?

Got a flyer from the estate agents this morning, stating grandly that as Jan, Feb and March are the best selling months, then would we like to join their 'red hot' programme.....

 

All we've got to do is reduce our price by between 5 and 15%, and they'll mark all the details up with 'red hot special price reduction'....

 

Considering we've just dropped the price by £10k, and that theu've managed to get the grand total of three viewings in 7 weeks, I don't think i'll be bothering.....

 

On a more boaty note, I bought a sextant this week from fellow ybw forumite, FullCircle, so thats something to do/learn over the winter, and i've also (rashly?) volunteered to help him with a few winter maintenance jobs....  anything to get back on a boat... actually, quite looking forward to it!

 

Also, another friend has very kindly offered us use of his boat.... he sails one weekend in three, and has given us free reign for 'spare' weekends if we want it.... very decent of him... its a 1 yr old Sun Odyssey 32, so very nice....and Ipswich based, so in familar territory....

 

Gosh... some boaty content at last!
