That's that then.

touché!

 

For the record, despite feigning a mild interest in the process through social expediency, I don't feel this is something I currently need to add to my skillset!

 

I very nearly bare metaled it all over last time with a tungsten tipped flexi-wheel....


...not this time but I will use a Tercoo wheel on the waterline (worth getting one in Steve as they are absolutely the best way to prep the steel, they chip off the coating & if you use trad sanders or steel wire they quickly clog up), slap 3 coats of vinyl tar on & renew the anodes.
I've booked Ovation Boat Services for a full hull survey , so it'll be a twitchy time as we're only 6mm base & sides.

 

So you're away that weekend as well then

 

Has that been paid for by the seller?

 

Congratulations Steve, looks good

 

No. He was booked in before Easter, but the winter floods breached the canal, which closed and he missed his slot. He booked in in again as soon as he could. I'll be paying.

 

I have a nephew and with his new lady and dog they bought a similar boat which lives near Tewkesbury, they have lived in the boat for 10 years now and enjoy the life.

 

Yes didn't think you'd be leaving it as is.

 

Can you guess where I am this evening?


I missed this on the way

 

Another clue...

 

Rain. Are you in Britain?

 

I'll second that .

 

Are you driving on the wrong side of the road in southern California during an infrequent period of rain?

Rugby?

 

Can you narrow it down a bit?

 

Parboldc hill?

 

I think the grey shapes could be hills.

 

Nope.

 

Probably lake district actually

 

Have you been caught in the Quantocks?

<edit> Hills, grey sky, piddling with rain. Must be Wales.
