    "RULES OF CHOCOLATE...."
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    If you've got melted chocolate all over your hands, you're
    eating it too slowly.

    Chocolate covered raisins, cherries, orange slices and
    strawberries all count as fruit, so eat as many as you want.

    The problem: How to get 2 pounds of chocolate home from the
    store in a hot car.
    The solution: Eat it in the parking lot.

    Diet tip: Eat a chocolate bar before each meal. It'll take
    the edge off your appetite, and you'll eat less.

    If calories are an issue, store your chocolate on top of the
    fridge. Calories are afraid of heights, and they will jump
    out of the chocolate to protect themselves.

    If I eat equal amounts of dark chocolate and white chocolate,
    is that a balanced diet? Don't they actually counteract each
    other?

    Money talks. Chocolate sings. Beautifully.

    Chocolate has many preservatives. Preservatives make you
    look younger. Therefore, you need to eat more chocolate.

    Put "eat chocolate" at the top of your list of things to do
    today. That way, at least you'll get one thing done.

    A nice box of chocolates can provide your total daily intake
    of calories in one place. Now, isn't that handy?

    If you can't eat all your chocolate, it will keep in the
    freezer. But if you can't eat all your chocolate, what's
    wrong with you?

    If not for chocolate, there would be no need for control top
    pantyhose. An entire garment industry would be devastated.
    You can't let that happen, can you?

  2. sat here at oulton broad makes me wonder about the day boat hire here, 1 elysian picnic boat and 6 little dayboats,one hs holesb in the rear window of canopy,another has canopy splitting, a third one has a hole where the mooring cleat should be with rope dissappearing into the depths, all 6 are very shabby yet seem to be in big demand#

    what happened? there were 20 boats well maintained and well looked after,now only 6 poorly maintained, as the only hire yard here it seems to be a wasted opportunity

  3. how about this for third party risk?

    fact, last night moored at h woods woke up 2 am smell of burnt lpg,only thing working was the gas fridge,quick look with torch boat next to me has horizontal fenders, one of these was blocking my fridge vent so off goes the fridge.had we not done so we might now be wielding a coal shovel in t'other place (no halos here)

  5. the wherrymans may have achieved 5 but since they now close at 4.30 pm no longer figure in our itinerary

    getting 5 must be fairly easy , the number of roadside burger bars i use for lunch ,all over the country seem to have 5 on display

  6. sadly this epitomises horning sailng club attitudes as perceived by many regular river users

    arrogant, bullying and very little thought for anyone else

    meet them on sunday on a bend 4  abreast and not even leaving room for a motor boat to hug the bank, many hirers out for

    the first time would be put off by this attitude, i have been through regattas many times,no doubt will again,

    perhaps the club should take a long look at the behaviour  of some of their members and issue warnings to them,

    instead of us

    we all have a right of navigation, and  its time some club members recognised it
