Ellesmere, Day 26.




A day in the community. 







We threw the hose over to top up the water today........... three and a half hours later we pulled it back.

Four other boats are now full and people who were out of reach of the hoses topped up with drums. Everybody was out and about with hose reels and connectors but I didn't even take one picture of the whole scene. Twit.

Nb Bendigedig - who were one of the boats out of reach - still happily lent their hose to the line as one of the other hoses from a nearer boat had frozen solid, even after being left in a hot shower it still refused point blank to pass any water through.


A proper "helping each other out day". 
Our neighbour came along with a bottle of wine at the end and would not take no for an answer, I am doing it justice right now.



Until next time..................
