  1. A butcher in Cromerty made it that way and use to post it out MM. I had it in a hotel in Fortrose. The modern BP is done in the plastic sleave I believe for elf and safety issues because blood is used in the mixture. I get a good spiced BP here in Troon, but its the modern fine mixture no big bits in it. I think the one you are meaning was tied at the ends in a hoop with string? Iain
  2. Lets go back to B&W Tvs you paid £10 to hire for the week, Tank of fuel £10 with £5 back at the end of your holiday, damage deposits returned. Oh yes, wooden boats with loo only unless very posh that had a shower. Ooooppps what a lovely dream I had. Personally I think leave the posts as they are, price card wise. If it works for the majority, why change it! Iain.
  3. As one who use to be inundated with those type of calls, I purchased the BT http://www.amazon.co.uk/BT8500-Advanced-Blocker-Cordless-Handset/dp/B00LZTHUEO/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1436349298&sr=8-1&keywords=bt+phones+call+blockerMoney well spent I must say. As the Skipper says it informs you who is calling etc. You do however pay a small fee for that to BT. Iain
  4. Hi folks, Just a wee update on my sair leg, a day short of nine weeks since the accident occured, and the leg is still not healed properly. Have had courses of pills antibiotics to try and clear it up, plus dressings galore. At least now its not painfull, and I am able to drive again without any problems. I also was wondering if Clive found another place for that Fire Extinguisher? I thought as I said in my blog, that behind the helmsman seat may have been ideal. I would hate some other poor soul to have the same thing happen to them. Time now for the next seven weeks to take in The Ashes Test series! Yes, a Scot supporting England at Cricket! Iain.
  5. At least David they will still be available to hire next year from Richos, albeit not from a Southern Rivers Yard. Iain
  6. Yes a new version of the old Bridge Inn would be nice Paul. Iain
  7. JM its not John I am concerned about, its young Alan, if he ventured to RofB, apparently he gets pickled after TWO pints! Iain
  8. Hi Alan, Unless things have changed there, visitation to the Gents, is a interesting down the steps job, after a pint or six lol Iain
  9. Awe John, that is cruelty! THAT was my favourite pub in Norwich!. They did a strong ale in there called Nutcracker, brill pint it was. How many fonts do they have these days? Think there was about 10/12 fonts years ago. Enjoy you lucky b.....er! Iain.
  10. Some interesting points there Robin, but as I am a bit older in the tooth, I stick by Swift the ex bridge pilots comments. Its a bit like telling a Tradesman how to do his job properly. Having seen many so called I know best botched jobs. His experience should I believe count for a hellova lot! Just my thoughts . Iain.
  11. I think you lot had too much sun last week lol Its a BRICK Bridge, and aint moving any time soon, so there Iain
  12. Just noticed Alan where you live, I have a cousin who lives in that area, whose address I have lost..duh . Old Colwyn is next door is it not? Iain
  13. Nothing wrong with the M25 if you use it in the dead of night Otherwise take a picnic basket and admire the views while you remain in Britain's Largest CAR PARK! Iain
  14. Left pic Santa Fe - Harvey Eastwoods, Brundall. Capt Morgan Buccaneer Boats. The Richos one was used in 1976 by a School Party every Easter from Wishow. .Three used every year then, I should have said. Iain
  15. Hi Jean, A warm welcome aboard the NBN friendly Forum Iain
  16. For the loveaduck whats our guid Scottish water to do with Wroxham Bridge? Its ICELAND's fault, its got nowt to with up here I go 110% with Swift the Ex Bridge Pilot, he will know the river levels a lot better than we will IMHO. Iain.
  17. That is so atmospheric JM Iain
  18. Hi Dave, I cannot see why you cannot re-enter the pics you took in April etc. But may require confirming from a higher authority. In saying that, I will be entering older pics, as I only get down now once a year. Iain
  19. Oh..are The Scaffold playing there this weekend? Joking apart, great to see progress at last! Iain
  20. You've had AMPle time to read all the posts MM or were not at OHM i'll get my coat Iain
  21. Looks like smarty pants in Admin sorted it for you Steve! Iain
  22. You cannot pick yer nose on this Forum in private . Very impressed how you moored LP upside down Steve As for The Bell, could not agree more. I think the fast tide there, puts a lot of peeps off mooring. Iain
