Work and days off

4 weeks down and 4 to go - in theory.  Have had some probelems with our computer on the IBC line since we got back and one day noticed this screw sitting out in the yard - it is a new one yet to be fitted and is what controls the flow of sugar to our line.  Apparently it is worth $11,000 - the problems we have had seem to be fixed so not sure what will happen with the new screw, I presume it will just sit there until such time as it is needed.

We have also been watching with interest the construction platforms that are working on the wharf extension for Hay Point.

We also finally went for a drive along the breakwater wall for the port and marina which had been destroyed in the cyclone and has only just been reopened.

We have been spending a few nights at Slade Point which has a lovely beach, bbqs, toilets, outside shower and power - just about everything we could need - I have been swimming a couple of times but Tony has been a little wary of sharks and stingers - I finally convinced him to get into the water with me - just as well he saw these guys after we went swimming!!!
