Sailing day

Today we sail. We can board at 12.30 so hopefully we can be having lunch in the Horizon Court by 1.00. Wishful thinking maybe. Last night there was a bushfire behind the houses across the road. We even made the news. Lots of fire engines (plus sightseers) driving up and down for a lot of the night and a thick pall of smoke this morning. In addition, the spear pump we use to water our copious gardens died last night so they will all have to depend on rain. Not a positive prospect at the moment. ANYWAY, the air will be beautiful at sea - no smoke, and if all the plants die, can always plant more. Our lovely friend Clare is collecting us at 11.00am and - were off.
