[grendel]

my my, google translate is getting a workout on this thread.

Now all I want to know is how is the patient, can we throw the switch and yell 'She's alive, she's Alive' or are we waiting upon the thunderstorms arrival first?

[stumpy]

Caesar adsum iam forte.......ooooh I'll get my coat shall I?

[Polly]

Passus sum sed Anthony.

 

Oh it is literally decades since I heard that one!

Forget Google translate peeps, just read aloud.

Caesar had some ......

[Ray]

I got there...  eventually!

Many years since amo amas amat etc. ☺

[Smoggy]

Back on subject.......ish......

Why are you putting another tired old 1500 bmc diesel back in? I know a guy with just the thing for the the job, it's a big block chevvy of approx. 8.5l with I beam rods, forged pistons, twin spark heads, currently fuel injected but going back to 4 barrel holley and chucking out 500HP, you'd never have to worry about pushing a tide over breydon again, there's even a 2:1 reduction gearbox with it (but no neutral or reverse option).

Perfect!

What could possibly go wrong?

[grendel]

the BMC barely fits under the floorboards as it is.

[SPEEDTRIPLE]

Can we have some more pictures please?. 

[Lulu]

As I type, the engine is ready and about to be transplanted. 

[Lulu]

Its in! 

 

[grendel]

how soon before we hear if the transplant was successful, its nice to see you brushed its teeth in the previous picture.

[Lulu]

Apparently 90% of the pipework and electricals are hooked up. Prop shaft connected. Its now over to JanetAnne to finish off and fire her up ....

Selsie is now home and ordered a takeaway

[grendel]

[Timbo]

Locked and getting loaded! Well, enjoying a snifter at the Old Dutch Tea Gardens. Enjoyed the trip through Lake Lothing. Uncle Albert would have been in his element what with an MTB and a Barge.

Passage after the lock complicated by the steering coming adrift. 

Moored at the Tea Gardens, although for a minute tea seemed to be wishful thinking as the water system was not working. Putting a fuse in did the trick! 

RT is currently pumping every minute and a half for forty three seconds. 

It's a bit windy folks! Just a bit...says the crew!

And  Timbo. You do not have to pick up any bedding on the way.

Can I ask the moderators, duvet think they should arrange a blanket ban on all these bedding jokes please?

[JanetAnne]

Ah... I have just been told it will be allowed to continue because Timbo is such a pillow of our community!

In the meantime, boaters beware!!!

Timbo will be travelling from Tea Gardens to Stracey Arms TOPLESS!!!

 

 

 

 

 

 

The wind took RT's canopy off last night 

[grendel]

Dave if its any consolation the same happened to Broad Ambitions canopy on the friday before lads week, just out of stalham on the way to potter heigham. fortunately the only damage was a pop stud pulled off the frame, and that was fixed with a bigger screw.
