  1. Any plans or thoughts in visiting by boat to countries Mark ?? Finny
  2. A rather large Crew also - surely she wouldn't need so many ?? Finny
  3. I walked right into that one - that said ..and perhaps it the angle but the mast doesn't look on full tilt compared to the other two photos great shot though Finny
  4. I have a remote controlled Kettle ..........I find that the more you Snore then the quicker it activates ......and its like flying it also pays to have the window seat - oh and if all else fails then slide over last nights hot water bottle Finnster
  5. Don't get much better than that Peter - super photos and thanks ........perhaps the best "rear of the year " so far - I have to ask why is Maidie low in the water ?? Finny
  6. I would have thought Ferry Marina are building Also - its great to be seeing any yards investing ....its good for themselves and the Broads as a whole Finny
  7. Sounds like my wife and with anybodys car .........she really does send them down the road Finneeeeeeeee
  8. years ago I took delivery of a hire car from the company that sounds like a bake bean manufacturer.......it was raining at the time of delivery so gave a quick glance and signed .next day I noticed a few scrapes on one of the rear arches and thought nothing of it did it cost ? well lets put it this way - I will always check a hire car fully .......and I don't eat baked beans anymore Finnydafool
  9. Oulton week otherwise known as " rear of the year week " ........well that's providing there is a stiff breeze and Peter is at the right place at the right time ..........he has never let us down Do you best please JM photofanfin
  10. The built in float switch is the type that I had Alan on a three way switch ,off ,auto or manual .I also recall my pump hardly making any noise ...when leaving the boat on shut down I used to throw a bucket of water down the bilge just to make sure everything was fine I even considered fitting two just in case of failure Finny
  11. That's even better Alan - its been a while since I was buying boaty bits .I knew the numbers rated the pump flow .and thanks for the correction hopefully tI will help folk thinking down them lines to get the right set up finny
  12. I like the idea of the lounge - tis virtual Therapy Flappyearsfin
  13. Hopefully someone will correct me should I have it wrong ...the number on a Rule pump represents the amount of litres of water the pump can shift per hour - so Alans Rule 1000 has the capacity to shift a 1000 lts per hour Finny
  14. For me there is just something about seeing a well turned out Woodie cutting gently through the river - its almost Aristocratic.....good luck with her restoration I no doubt like many others will be watching and wishing you well Finny
  15. Hi Alan - have a look at some of the Rule auto bilge pumps with the built in float switch .we fitted one but cant remember which model and it gave us no problems and are very easy to fit - the only drawback I could ever see in having one was if your bilge was dirty other than that it was all good finny
  16. Thanks Strowy .it pays to read before you hit the post button then thanks Finny
  17. It is funny how things get stuck in your Head and I never gave it any thought until the thyme was mentioned (love boat) and yes I have been singing it all day too ....in real life my cousin was the Cruise Director on the real Love boat and whilst they filmed funny old world Finny
  18. Is it possible to re-edit a post that you have made ? I have had a good look around and cant find anything on how too Thanks Finny

  20. it amazing just how much a little bit of damage to a prop can make .my Hampton was more like a Hotpoint on full spin .....not nice Fffffffffffffffffin
  21. Agreed Mike First aider myself and would recommend anyone to take the course ,and the problem with car crashes are the unseen internal injuries ,I remember when I did my course the instructor quoting a motor cycle accident where a member of the public took off his crash helmet to make the casualty feel comfy .....unfortunately it was the only thing holding his head together ....he sadly passed away do the course folks ......and make difference Firstaiderfin
