Hi Shemaya,
Many thanks for the good wishes! Aside from the hip problem, spending April to December of 2015 back in France, brought home how much I missed the Land, and the seasons, and, believe it or not, being COLD! And me the woman who always wished to live in a warm climate LOL. We built a rocket mass heater before we left, which heats up a 5metre cob and granite bench, so I feel we can keep warm on our return! That problem solved, we've been learning about permaculture and I'm looking forward to growing our own food as well as getting involved in a little seed anarchy. We both plan to 'adopt' an heirloom vegetable and keep it going for posterity, and those in the future who don't want F1 hybrids!
I think René would like another boat, but I've suggested he hire by the day, as his first mate engineer is retiring!
We've kept the price low for Crib, because we do believe that it's more important that she gets out on the water, with new owner(s) living the dream than us recouping every last cent we put in! We always viewed Crib as a bit of fun and never as an investment for the future. Nothing too serious and grown up for me ;o)
Am writing you a pm, which may end up being sent from Langkawi, but wanted to say quick thanks
Regards
Lesley
