Out and ????

Hello all. I left off with rushing out to see the new engine. Wellll havn't seen it yet but know it is in Ireland specifically Kilmore Quay. Don't really know how you kill a quay to begin with and to kill more?? Anyway back to the main subject whatever that was, have just had two hot whiskeys sooo, I digress. where was I? Ahhh Went to the good ship Kalinka1 on Fri. past and started the take down of the old engine in prep to remove it from the boat. All went well and I was able to remove the v drive and the Transmission  and uncouple all the connections (cut the wires). Undid the Mount nuts and got everything ready to go for Sat. We then cleaned up and rushed home to get Margaret to the Bus on time and go to Adrian's for 2000 hr dinner Ben in town so a right good evening!!!!
 Oh for lunch on Fri we went to Kilmore Quay and had crab rolls UUUUUMMMMM good and we each had our own so I did't have to share!
 Sat morning up bright and early and headed off to the yard undid some other stuff talked Michael into bringing the cherry picker over and we pulled the engine without a whole lot of issues. Once it was down on the pavement and after a celubratory beer  I put the engine back together. We then had a couple more celluuubrateery beers with Michael and Stephen and Sir Richard and Sally drove us home.
Toda ySally not well so I left her feeling sorry for herself and went off to see John and Caroll picked up some drugs and went off to Kalinka 1 to clean up and get ready for the new install. came home went to Dunns store for necessity's (Paddy and cloves, crunchies, maltesers and Terry's chocolate oranges).
Your now up to date I think?? Ohh attached are some pictures I hope.
