Las Palmas de Gran Canaria

Tuesday morning, Octavio arrived with the quote for the sail repairs as arranged. We then scanned it using the printer / scanner / copier we had brought from home and which has earned its keep multiple times already in our trip to send to our brokers, MI Cats. MI Cats, currently at the Southampton Boat Show were to send the quote for approval to Fountaine Pajot who have just got back from the August shutdown in France and have the Grand Pavious Boat Show going on in La Rochelle. Hence, we were keen to get the ball in motion straight away to reduce delays.

I finally having cracked the computer backup problem with the use of xcopy and the Wi-Fi link spent the day copying files from my old laptop to our new laptop, step one of the process. I also had to get my car back on eBay following the previous lack of success and my parents kindly arranging the MOT which it has luckily passed straight through – thanks Dad for changing the brake pads. Hopefully, this will do the trick.
