Hi Pinto

Yes we did book extra places on the mooring just in case

It's £12 per day If you wish to you can pay by the Donate button under the advertisements on the left. If you do please leave your name and boat name in comments

Please if you wish to attend supply me with the boat name, so I can let Salhouse know so they don't harass you for the mooring fee.

If you wish to pay cash I shall be about for a couple of hours on Friday PM and most of Saturday and will search for you.

Hope you can join be great to put names to faces.

We shall be moored on the centre moorings, on the right side of the moorings as you head towards them.

Look forward to meeting you.

We still might see a few of you about over the weekend..  other half's op was not the ideal result and she will be moving onto a 10 day course of radiotherapy in the next week or so... so we will take the boat out this weekend before she has her sessions... couldn't make the date for sure as not knowing her condition..

Just looked at todays weather forecast. It says " 0% probability of precipitation. "

As I type this, I'm listening to the pitter patter of raindrops on the roof. 

[grendel]

6.30 departure from gym, bilge pump, once the impellor was unclothed, behaving itself, float switch was caught under a beam preventing operation, now fixed,. Proceeding  upriver  at a moderate 1700 rpm, with the tide

Planks seem to have stopped weeping after 3 weeks out of the water

Steering can now be set and stays where you left it
