A long summer

Dear blog reader,

I've had a couple of really nice holidays and a week of excruciating pain over the summer. The "good/bad" balance of the universe has been maintained :-)

There hasn't been that much progress on Relativity because I've been away so much but this weekend Ian and I have taken the back bedroom apart completely and re-built the bunks in a much more useful configuration. We've also re-wired the 12v circuits from the stern to the bathroom so that the various pumps in there have a more reliable and higher current supply. The difference is obvious already. The real reason for doing this is so that we can install the central heating boiler in there soon (like before it gets too much colder at night ;-) ). It needs a good 12v supply for the fuel pump, the glow plug and the water pump.

Unfortunately the Travelpower blew up on Friday and I have no idea why so that is going to take some investigation :-(

Thanks to Jill I also have a drawer on wheels under my bed so that makes storing things there much easier!

Plans for the next couple of weeks include the possible addition of a 12v FreeSat TV system. I know... you thought I was being soooo alternative and living without TV but I'm finding that there are various things I do miss - quite apart from the boys complaining that there is no TV here. Grrrrr.
