BOATS, BRIDGES, BOILERS ... IF IT'S GOT RIVETS, I'M RIVETTED
... feminist, atheist, autistic academic and historic narrowboater ...
Likes snooker, beer, tea, rivets and solitude, and is strangely fascinated by the cinema organ.
And there might be something about railways.

Bitty bits

Well, one thing to celebrate - the blacking is finished! I should think that should do it for about five years. The rest of the day has been rather bitty - rather like the weather. More rain overnight, then it looked better in the morning, then in the afternoon, the wind got up... just as we'd decided to put a giant tarpaulin over the whole cabin to keep the rain out of the newly dried-out engine hole. We got it lashed down eventually but it wasn't much fun. I finished painting all the bitty little bits that we'll need in the engine room, because... the engine might be going in tomorrow.
