I should have known posting every day would be too much to keep up, especially with a week of moving items out of two stores in Southend into the new store in Cambs, ready for the day (week, month, year) the boat is ready.  We hired a crafter van – from a well known rather perky US hire company – and did the job in two trips.

They’ve mainly revolved around who relates the discovery of the second body and why there is so much blood consdering how the man died. Eventually … well after a short walk and the obligatory 2.30 in the morning google… I solved both problems. After getting my nails cut down later this morning, I shall be typing away.
