Slow progress

We seem to be in the era of fairly undramatic changes these days - no dry docks, no trips round the coast or up the Thames, just small steady improvements.

This last weekend I painted and insulated the main hatch in the living area, helping to reduce the amount of heat lost through the bare steel. Mary continued with finishing up the painting and the staining of more of the skirting board round the boat. We've now moved most of the building type materials into the workshop, with the aim of keeping the living area clean from now on.

I built a workbench/shelf to store some of this stuff and to have somewhere to work on things apart from the floor.

I also made and fitted a tray for the batteries that are now actually on the barge, rather than in the corner of our flat.

This weekend I'll start connecting some of the electrical bits up. Fun eh?
