Despite the cheery picture I uploaded yesterday (which did make me laugh a lot because it does actually look like us), I have woken up feeling ever so anxious.\u00a0 Last night I did some working out of accounts and what’s been spent and worked out that we have already spent over what was quoted for this first stage.\u00a0 A third over the quote.\u00a0 Which is quite a lot, and suddenly I’ve got the FEAR.\u00a0 Anyway, Pat and I have decided we need to discuss details with Tom.\u00a0 I am being ridiculously meticulous about the amount we are spending and putting everything into folders and making endless spreadsheets, like some sort of lunatic.\u00a0 I’m probably panicking, but I do worry about that sort of thing.\u00a0 Also we looked up the boiler that Tom wants us to get and it costs almost \u00a34,000!\u00a0 Just the boiler.\u00a0 So we’re not sure we’ll be able to do that.\u00a0 Anyway, I will do an entry about Kabolas: ‘to Kabola or not to Kabola’.\u00a0 (They are very serious marine boilers for trawlers and yachts that rich people own and fishing boats which people live on in the antarctic). It’s not so much that I’m worried we’ll run out (there is that) but that I genuinely don’t think we should spend over what we’ve got because it would be silly.\u00a0 As I was saying yesterday.\u00a0 It’s the old thing of pouring your money into a big hole.\u00a0 And that’s quite literal at the moment what with all the holes we’re making.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
