All looking good.

 

Sandtiger ...its a totatlly different recipe for rusty nails...that one involves a chicken tikka massala and a tooth pick:)

 

We can make the final decision regarding vehicles and boats closer to the date. Spent the last two days working on the boat and its looking far better. Found a major wiring problem with the main engine loom. It has been rubbing against a bulkhead and has cut through two of the seven wires in the loom. Not sure what the wires do...must be the over temp or low oil alarm as it still runs. But potentially it could have been a nightmare as the chances of findind the fault at sea would have been next to zero! All sorted now and no chance it can happen again.

 

If anyone down south fancies a trip I can pick you up from teeside airport on friday. Or park the car for the duration wih no problem at all.

 

Looking forward to it and been reading about porgies in preparation...seems there is good potential

Watched a video in the local pub taken a few days ago of a fishing trip on the karen, they were fishing off dunnet head and a 12-15ft porbeagle was mincing a seal only yards away from the boat, was quite awsome to see!!

[Fastd]

Stop it you are getting me excited

 

Whats the best size hook for a seal? or do you not use a whole one?

 

Can anyone who is good at fly tying tie a seal imitation ?
