The weather has brightened up with some hot sun. System Bolegat, the Swedish alcohol monopoly visited and the delightful dry Swedish cider obtained, an oil change (did not change filter on this occasion, just oil). Björn came by and we caught up a bit, he is headed to Dubai for work, most interesting I think. Happy chance a bbq was happening and I could see some friends from two years ago, a bit of a homecoming in a way. Both Jan and Claes will be going to Holland soon, Jan on route to Caribbean, Claes to go to Groningen. I was happy to be able to pass on some local knowledge of Dutch waters. Tomorrow to the island of Orust and Hallberg Rassey where I hope to get a new tiller, mine is marginal, making funny noises and partially split. I’ll have a proper HR solution. Out of interest my contact at HR, Ludvig, tells me “all the carpenters are busy”, so I guess the yard is too.
