About three
weeks until D-Day.
We spend
our spare time dreamily crossing items off the 'to do' list, and
excitedly poring over charts and pilots. Progress is exactly in-line
with our detailed, Gantt-charted project plan. The minutely itemised
budget remains well under control, with no unforeseen setbacks
threatening to puncture the bubble of serenity in which we wind down our
day-to-day lives. The lingering summer evening
sunlight allows us plenty of evenings on the boat to get
those final jobs finished, secure in the knowledge that all the important preparation is behind us.
Or not..!
