We had asked everywhere about a cement mixer, but the second hand one we looked at had water in the engine, but we were amazed when Robert Tatos, at a local hardware shop, just suggested he lend one to us. It needed a bit of attention, but apparently only a pull cord, so we agreed enthusiastically, and he put it in the back of his pick-up and brought it up to Goat Bottom. Dave was away skippering for the next two days, so I was hoping it could be operational for the morning. But it just wouldn't start. In the end, it got dark and we had to accept that I would be mixing by hand again.
