Car hire day… Day 215

C.L. Peache

Thursday 22nd February 215
It’s time to get the sanding sheets out again today ((Your life is so interesting. Also, your boat is supposed to be 60ft long, how have you not finished it already?)) I have no idea Brackets, I really don’t. This is final room which needs sanding though, I’m so sick of it the boat and ready for the boat to be tidy again for the final time!

Tomorrow we are hiring a car as we need to go and buy carpet and vinyl and all the other bits and bobs we need to finish the jobs, so a car will be handy. We normally use Enterprise for our hire cars which are so far a really good company. The people are really friendly and they come and pick us up from the marina which is a bonus. It feels like a rarity to received good customer service but we have had nothing but, during the time we have used them. They also give points for hiring cars so we manage to hire the car for free for one of the days. Result.

Anyway, it’s back to the sanding… until tomorrow. ((Is that it?)) Yes, sorry, it’s a busy time but not for much longer fingers crossed. ((You’re giving me no chance to be sarcastic in these short blogs. Never thought i would want you to write more Peachy but…)) Day done. Until tomorrow. x

After living in various parts of the UK, including Wakefield, York, Derby, and the Yorkshire Dales, I now live on a Narrowboat cruising the canal network. I enjoy reading, writing, travelling, walking, kayaking, watching all forms of motorbike racing and socialising (networking). At the beginning of my writing journey, I started my blog which tracks the ups and downs of writing. ((I need to mention that my blog posts are usually visited by ‘Brackets’!)) To the books… My fantasy series, Festival of Time was completed with the publication of Book Three: Battle in November 2022 and now joins, Book Two: Rescue, and Book One: Escape. Click ‘books’ on my website to find out more and follow me on social media for updates – I love chatting with readers and authors.
