  1. Alan, I can only echo what everyone else has said. Just caught up on this and I know how a sudden lose can be so devastating. Please shout if your down here and need a friend. Mark.
  2. Jay, it will be after 20:01 not telling you what day though.
  3. The view this morning was ok. Got better this afternoon though.
  4. It's on the cards, buy more custard this weekend folks next it will be jelly and dream topping!!!! lets hope the sherry survives https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.devonlive.com/news/devon-news/devon-ambrosia-custard-factory-sold-2213270.amp
  5. No call for that now. With the demise of custard apparently peaches (well tinned ones) are out of favour as well.
  6. Oh come on. Now it's public I'm going to have to pay full asking price!!!!
  7. I may to explain my comment. Picture no4 top left. It's not a real steering wheel or is it?
  8. I'm not too keen on that helm position. The wheel is a bit high for me. good luck and enjoy your new toy.
  9. I was at home today while the boiler was being serviced. To be fair I'm at home all the time!! The engineer said your cats in the garden. our cat has never stalked anything let alone a heron that's bigger than her. It was so funny watching her stalk it. Normally the blackbirds just hop past her. Then this afternoon the little devil was on the patio. Where was the damn cat? the heron deterrent on the pond needs upgrading. It's not working. The cat has been fired.
  10. Roof top honey? I am so thinking the wrong thing now
  11. Not the tallest, but we were on the sky deck earlier this year and the window cleaners were cleaning away. Not a job I would relish!!!
  12. From my office a few years back. Before they made me redundant! my office now is so much nicer I remember tower 42 when it was the nat west tower and had to fix a pc on the top floor!! Hard to concentrate with the view back then!!
  13. A rib with a pair of 80hp stationed at the BA station at GY could get across Breydon in less than 5 mins ( I can do it in 6 at cruising speed). Go into shallowish water and pull a tractor out of mud!!! Maybe not that much cheaper, but a lot more useful. I do agree though. Running aground on still water is not really a mayday call. Sure take the kid feeling sick off (probably anxiety) but the rest could stay onboard. Having said that, was the engine/rudder damaged? Did they have enough battery juice for the heating? In the world of H&S I'm sure legal liability kicks in more than learning a lesson. it is sad that the skipper of the second boat didn't twig he was putting his own vessel in danger following the one with the problem. You have to assume they we're in communication.
  14. Am I missing a point here. New bridge planned and budgeted for in Great Yarmouth. New bridge planned and budgeted for in Lowestoft. Existing and problematic Rail bridges at reedham and somerleyton - on your bike and move your boat!!! classic, those in charge not having a clue. Or is it maybe that roads are the future?
  15. Looks good. Enjoy her Will you be venturing offshore? Seems Rude not to
  16. But what is she? Can't quite make her out.
  17. The heads are all good. Fortunately it wasn't a full bottle!! bit of luck on the electric post as well. 50p on one socket and £1:50 on the other. Had as many electrical things going as we could, but still only used 30p!! loveky and calm as well. Sun just breaking through. I reckon these moorings are good for 3 x 40 footers. There was a 44, my 38 and a little 32 on here last night and you wouldn't have got another on. Shame as they are really nice.
  18. Is that my head or "the head"? it was just the one. Been a fantastic evening. More like July/August than October.
  19. Finishing the night off with a coffee. And a slug of this. Im sure it's not alcoholic?
  20. Rubbish photo but the steak was to die for. The sausages are nearly done. And then it's boys round the camp fire.
  21. Well we got hijacked. 2 other boats here now donuts full!! we have pole position and BBQ and fire pit going though!
