JanetAnne Posted August 11, 2018 Share Posted August 11, 2018 Please be advised that our illustrious Chairman, Timbo, is currently carrying out 'sea' trials aboard Royal Tudor on the Ant. Those in the know will realise that today is not a good day to venture out anywhere from St Benet's to Stalham. When he rang me last night to ask how to start the engine the alarm bells started You have been warned! 3 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Timbo Posted August 12, 2018 Share Posted August 12, 2018 Must report sea trials a complete success, managed to get RT in and out of shed... Twice without mishap. Steve had his first time helming a boat down to Barton and enjoyed it so much we now have a boating convert. Two days on my own now fitting bits and pieces, laying lino and cleaning! Time for a beer first! 5 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
