I must slap myself around a bit for not getting stuck in enough recently. I'm sure I could come up with a million excuses about the snow, ice freezing temperatures and family & work commitments but at the end of the day there is always something that I could be doing to keep the project moving forward. The spark that has kicked me back into life came from Roger.. While I was bemoaning my excuses to him the other day he offered to cut out some new backing pads for my seacocks as the ones I fitted are woefully undersized. It then occurred to me that Roger will have done more work on Ciao Bella in 2013 than I have... even worse, he asked me for the diameter of the holes for the skin fittings last week and I still haven't got back to him... Unforgivable.
So here's my commitment: I will complete at least one item... no matter how small per week. (Starting with measuring the skin fitting tails).
One more thing to cheer me up was this facebook post from Swift sails :o)
Glad to be of assistance in the motivational arena. I'm a personal development trainer in my spare time!
