silly mare

That is not a tow rope, it's the reins that Phil was using whilst demonstrating his prance following his recent visit to the Spanish Riding School in Vienna. He continued this exhibition in the chippie later that day and got some very strange looks from folk outside (and inside).

Still a novice in the web department, didn't know there was a limit on the PM, I'll try to fix it

Should be OK now

Looks like good news on the engine front. Engineer thinks it may need a new set of piston rings or at worst a rebore of the 3 cylinders. If this is the case at least I get a reconditioned engine with about 75hp instead of the 70 we had before.
He's taking it away next week so hopefully have it back in the drink in the next two weeks or so!

Great Pics

Good pics John, thanks for posting them, you're not such a technophob after all.

Good news on Ians Piston. Get back in the water soon mate. In the meantime, you're always welcome aboard MeMe so don't be afraid to ask. Better still pester me as sometimes I need a little prompting to get on the water. You know what a fair weather sailor I am.
