I recently purchased one of those fold up ladders, decent bit of kit I reckon.

Not WD40. Silicone lubricant can be brought as a spray or in a tube. Screwfix amongst others sell it.
If your car has any 'flocked' seals(furry)then don't use silicone on them, they will creak expletively! (we learnt this the hard way). If you do get silicone on them and creaking occurs, wash with soapy water.
Silicone is absolutely fine on rubber though.

Hi Meg I would take the 50 to mean it is a 50hp engine but I am no expert on the Nanni range.

Yes indeed it is the view from Wrabness, just along from All Saints Church, overlooking the Stour estuary towards Felixtowe so full marks to Grendel.
ChrisB is correct,the building in question is the Grayson Perry one, when the sun is in the right postition it's rays reflect brightly from the house, a bit like a road sign in headlights(I forget how this was achieved now).
ChrisB is right again, the only Butt and Oyster that I know of is at Pin Mill but there was a pub just up on the main road called The Wheatsheaf(formerly The Drunken Duck- I think) and one called The Black Boy close to the train station, both now long closed.
Sorry Turnoar, not Hull but I quite fancy watching Only Fools and Horses now.....

Bit of a mixed day today, running repair req'd on my old van(cv joint), went muuuch more easily than I had anticipated which meant several hours hanging around waiting for an Amazon delivery containing a pair cv boot clip pliers..not helped by the fact it came 3 hours later than they typically do.
Anyway, on completion a test drive was required and that brought me to one of my favourite local views.....cleverclogs points available to anyone who knows where it is and what the significance of one the buildings seen is.......

Was that the boatyard known as Neatishead boatyard that had Ocean 30s? I'm trying to visualise where exactly it was - looking at the original photo was the bridge behind you and to the left?
47 minutes ago, marshman said:No it is taken from where Banks Boats is today I think? Good one that - threw me a bit as you have not been able to moor in there for years now - not even on the front.
I'm pretty sure that the first pic was taken from the Neatishead boatyard dyke looking out onto the main river meaning the Alpha bathtub is on the 24 hour moorings, Bank Boats is the next dyke to the left(just visible through the foiliage I think) and the bridge itself is also to the left but in front of the camera not behind. I think the 24 hour mooring now has a larger more solid fence seperating it from the house adjacent so looks different, which is what threw me. Those power poles seen in the background are probably in the vicinity of the main road/pub.
My pic is looking from the other side of the river, I estimate the Aston in Pastboating's pic is roughly were the Broom skipper is in mine.
Annoyingly I have loads of pics of that view but my boat was obscuring the crucial area in about 99% of them.

So not exactly a 'Flat Earther'...
This is true however Chris Whitty did not say most of what was being inferred in the clip, that was opinion provided by Piers Corbyn(an Astrophysicist and Weather forcaster) and Richie Allen(a radio presenter who is funded by his own listeners).
My info regarding the two persons above was gleaned from a google search.

Love the poster. It seems to have every Aquafibre on it but ours, which is a 35ft centre cockpit model, but on ours, the deck doesn't dip down towards the stern like the Pearl 35.6 shown on the poster.
I'm guessing that it only shows the mouldings that they offering at the time the poster was produced, I would take a guess at it being from the late 90's/early 00's?(anyone?)
Funnily enough my folks have recently bought the same model you have and their old boat is an Ocean 30 which is also missing from the poster.

Even on a lease car aren't you the registered keeper. The owner and registered keeper of a car can, but don't have to be the same thing! That's why the from memory the V5 document has printed on the front, this document is not proof of ownership. It should have the lessee as the registered keeper and will more often than not be retained by the owner.
I know of one scheme that has the company who supplies the car as registered keeper but legally the person signing the agreement owns it. This particular scheme is only available if you work in the trade for a main dealer rather than Joe Public though.

Thank you for the idea! Until you suggested it, I wouldn't have thought she ever had a previous number because I thought the Denham Owl name came after she left the Broads. I'll add it to the "to do" list.

Looks like the number was E93, hopefully they will allow it to be changed back.

Distance travelled I'm afraid or as the crow flies if it's 5 miles
I'd best get the helicopter out then.......

floydraser as you mention restoring original sign writing etc and I notice in your YouTube vids that the boat has a newer 4 digit reg number, have you thought about asking for her original one back? My parents got the original one back for their 'new' boat which had left the Broads back in 2000 and returned just before lockdown.

Jeckells certainly do a clean/reproofing service on Acrylic canopies but not sure about remove/refit as we took it in to them.
