clinging to the wreckage: The Fresh Market
http://gerryantics.blogspot.com/2011/08/what-treat-i-have-just-been-taken-to.html
Clinging to the wreckage. Thursday, 4 August 2011. I have just been taken to ' The Fresh Market. A gourmet supermarket here in Savannah. Oh Boy. I had to be forcibly restrained from spending the entire month's budget on fresh baked basil foccacia, lemon pound cake, fresh racks of lamb and soooo much more! I just ate one of these, it was truly scrumptious. Naughty me didn't save even one tiny crumb for TBH! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Follow me on Twitter. View my complete profile.

clinging to the wreckage: March 2011
http://gerryantics.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html
Clinging to the wreckage. Tuesday, 15 March 2011. I find my emotions oscillating quite wildly this week. Perhaps I can put it down to my 'age'! As we prepare to sail to pastures new I begin to experience the nervous anticipation of the passage. It's not that I am fearful but rather that I have a VERY vivid imagination.quite honestly I do think it's a bit of a woman thing. Certainly the numbers are massively reduced but I can't get over the fact that I feel I have 'let the boat down' Sigh. You sure he said.

Clinging to the wreckage. Saturday, 30 April 2011. Well all we need now is the right weather window and it looks like Monday or Tuesday may be it. The fuel and water tanks are full, we are just doing a bit of provisioning. The charts are ready the route entered in the GPS. All the laundry is up to date. I have been checking entry requirements for the USA and hope(! I have them right. So farewell again for a couple of weeks until we ready land again, somewhere in Florida we anticipate. As soon as the sun ...

clinging to the wreckage: Time, Opera and cooking.

Clinging to the wreckage. Monday, 18 July 2011. Time, Opera and cooking. Goodness we have been busy this week. Time is passing very rapidly and we really have to get a move on if we are going to get north before the winter sets in. TBH has finally kicked all the leaks into touch, yeah! Now we are servicing the windvane steering gear and still have to fix a new exhaust pipe to the engine. The old one has developed a rather nasty leak. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Dead On Arrival: Financial Reform Fails | The Baseline Scenario

What happened to the global economy and what we can do about it. G-20 Rules; Time for Germany-Bashing. Paul Krugman For OMB →. Dead On Arrival: Financial Reform Fails. June 21, 2010. Go, for example, through the summary of comprehensive financial regulatory reform bills in President Obama’s letter to the G20 last week. Most indications are that they will seek tier one capital requirements in the range of 10-12 percent which is what Lehman had right before it failed. How would that help? More transparency...

Clinging to the wreckage. Tuesday, 26 July 2011. Mad dogs and englishmen. Quite an extraordinary thing, it's raining here, and during the day no less! So we have walked down to the library where there is internet access, for free, air conditioning and secondhand books for sale. Oh and we are the only people to have walked here! They don't seen to do walking in Georgia! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Follow me on Twitter. Well the kids wouldn't leave home so I had to! View my complete profile. The Cr...

clinging to the wreckage: Exhaust and self-sufficiency.
http://gerryantics.blogspot.com/2011/08/exhaust-and-self-sufficiency.html
Clinging to the wreckage. Monday, 1 August 2011. Like all jobs on the boat fitting the new exhaust pipe turned out to be a far bigger job than we had planned on! Of course the entire boat has to be turned upside down, beds disrupted in the search for tools, saloon destroyed whilst the pipe is thtreaded through, galley out of commmission whilst TBH assumes positions of eye watering complexity as he struggles to insert his body into spaces designed for a 2 foot child with 6 foot arms! What a great idea, ho...
