I'm at home today editing photos from the photoshoot yesterday. Tomorrow morning I'm doing another photoshoot for Weeley Vets as they have picked up another Veterinary of the Year award for this year as well. Once that is done, I'm off to the boat. I'll be staying on board overnight and finishing a few small jobs before settling down to watch the Spanish Grand Prix. Monday morning Lady Emma gets re launched so I will do some more videos and photos as she goes back in. Alfa's....reliability. They are Italian so, not so much I feel your pain with you straining your groin getting your leg over....Happens to the best of us

It's a warm and sunny day here too. Set for more of the same for tomorrow and the week ahead. Bring it on I left Zed The Ted on security watch on the boat. I'll catch up with him tomorrow and he can have a nice cold beer with me whilst watching the GP. Alfa's....I think the Italians refer to unreliability as all part of the charm and character

I know 2 members in this club who both had to surrender their driving licenses as a result of sustaining spinal injuries. One had his license returned and is back in the driving seat. Richard does it help to know you are not alone? Sometimes it does. Recently I was asked to make contact with a wealthy business man in Tanzania who 2 months ago had the same operations I had in 2022 and in 2023. At the time of his operations, he thought he was the only one and had no one who could appreciate what he was going through. I was able to advise him what to expect and talk with him about the pain management and complications, how to overcome them. We chat now and again on Video Calls/WhatsApp as he remains in Tanzania. I have great faith in you Richard, you will get through this as you are from the school of tough. You have a lot going for you in other areas of your life. You have a new house, a beautiful wife and family. Last edited by Gate Keeper; 22nd June 2024 at 12:42.. |

The sun has made an appearance here & it's proper warm now, so I decided to wash the car & clean the inside.
There were a few containers of snowfoam that came with the pressure washer I bought & one of them was a super thick snowfoam that I hadn't used, It went on like clotted cream I left it on the car for fifteen minutes then pressure washed it off, Clean as a whistle now.

Thank you Jeff for posting up the menu.
I can advise you that Cod peas and chips at the Holiday Inn Express Terminal 4 Heathrow is £20 per person, the cod was thin, it was mostly batter, how disappointing. I guess the restaurant in the marina has to make the money from the yachting community. Maybe the restaurant owners think the folks with yachts and cabin cruisers are loaded and can afford the prices. I wonder how they compare to Clacton On Sea seafront? Or perhaps £40 is standard for Fish n Chips? |

Italian electrics are a mystery. Mate of mine had an Italian motorbike, Moto Morini 350 V twin, the electrics were baffling. We'd be sorting another electrical fault, tracing a purple/blue wire for example, it would go into a connector and come out yellow/red for no reason other than to confuse you
Most expensive around here is £17.50 (sit in menu) and that's at the chippy voted best in the UK! https://www.msn.com/en-gb/travel/oth...94fc5a6a9&ei=9 Last edited by stevestrat; 22nd June 2024 at 16:00.. |
