Sun...Wind....RAIN and windows

Good start this morning doing delicate woodwork in the sunshine. Roger and Lisa went off to collect some wood so that we could make the templates of the front windows and also bought me a broom (with lovely black and purple stars all over it).  Not a hint at my cleanliness, it was just so i could sweep up the big piles of sawdust off the quay.
After a light lunch of mexican wraps with homemade refried beans we set too again on the windows with great success. We have now removed all of the windscreens and made templates of them and temporarily re fitted them with gaffer tape. They are now more secure and more waterproof than they had been all season which is quite a good thing.....more of this later....

We all decided (Roger mostly) that it would be a good idea to stroll into town and buy a gelato or two. What can i say, when in italy eat ice cream!!!.. We then had a wander so that i could be shown where things were etc etc. At this point it started to rain then rain more then hail a bit then rain harder. Needless to say we just had to find a bar and stay there until the rain stopped enough to let us dash back to the boat.

So i am now sitting here listening to the torrents of rain pouring over the boat and hoping that the windows stay in.....

But at least i'm full of ice cream, beer and pasta...................
