  1. Yeah - I'd have resort to making one and having to resin cast the rest. Agree on the Moltow pens being great BTW - use them a lot in my plastic modelling
  2. Apparently went overboard in the small hours https://www.edp24.co.uk/news/man-s-body-pulled-from-river-wensum-norwich-1-6708062
  3. On a lorry - same as it left. Re moving it to Potter, the journey time to Hickling and back is 2 hrs. Would they get enough trips in, especially with limited numbers, to turn a profit ?
  4. I did hear some time ago Ra was coming back - maybe.....
  5. It's Russian, so will need to run it through a translator ( если ты не говоришь по русски ) http://www.partskatalog.ru/ Been looking for ages for one for my Honda outboard - very useful site
  6. MODS - can you fix the typo !
  7. I already posted this on the Facebook page, but thought I'd add it here. Test run of the engine down to How Hill late Saturday - just getting back onto Barton Broad
  8. This is going to get very VERY messy. My earlier comment re ex Forces guarding war memorials etc seemed reasonable. It now appears that an element of professional hooligans who follow the football circuit ( and are presumably bored during COVID ) have now latched onto it and will also be there. These are the extreme right wing element - riots loom I feel.
  9. There have been suggestions on various veterans / forces groups that they will be surrounding relevant 'monuments' during future planned protests. Could get messy
  10. In the year 2525 The robots have taken over the world. Monuments to humans who enslaved their ancestors are being torn down. Discuss
  11. I've got a wet bottom again !
  12. That explains it - always wondered why he was a Spurs fan
  13. And is the word that much of British Law is based upon
  14. My daughter, a teenager, was vocalising the BLM viewpoint the other day. When I said ALL lives matter I was told I had no idea what it was like. Maybe - but I'll stand by the view that all people are equal and should be afforded the same level of rights and respect, up until the point they step outside what a reasonable human being would be expected to do. My response would then depend on both their and my situation at the time, from ignoring to physical intervention.
  15. It's been on a week so far and no false alarms. As the season goes on, if it stays behaved, I may consider the upgrades. As it is, you can silence if from home on your mobile
  16. Digging this thread up, I've just fitted a new PIR alarm to the boat - very impressed. It will sound @ 130db and then proceed to call / text me and up to two others. And less than £100. Some of the optional extras I could add may get fitted later such as a masthead alarm / light - that'd get attention ! Just need to finalise my reaction plan if it goes off

    Post Covid...

    Drinking more - but mainly G&T. I spend a lot of time normally ferrying my daughter to classes in Norwich, and rather than keep coming home and back it's easier to pick something up

    I'm the best part of a stone lighter - no takeaways
  19. Theme from the Onedin line or The Last Farewell by Roger Whittaker
  20. Now that makes sense - if I'd been told that I'd have been happier. This is the first real store I've been in since lockdown started
  21. Went to Lathams yesterday for a single battery. I HAD to take a trolley to be allowed in. Not the guy on the doors fault, but as I said to him "you as a store are forcing me to handle this and increasing my exposure risk"
  22. I don't want MY freedom to use my boat jepordized but others. I agree the risk is low and over the top in most Broads cases, but whilst the rules are in force I feel we must abide by them
