    Replacing the rubber upstand on a lewmar genoa car

    In case anyone else has the same issue - the plastic insert the holds the plunger in does come out (you may apparently break the little holding clips off when you do) and you need to remove the pin from the car. The block will not come apart - even though on mine it looks like it should as its a...

    [ QUOTE ] Thanks for the link I will check it out. Like you leaving a member of the family behind just isn't an option. [/ QUOTE ] - good to hear someone say that last bit. Our poocho's had a ball so far. Only lucky bit is that the other half of 'us' is a vet which makes insurance not really...

    Getting back from Ceuta or Smir

    Sorry to go a little off topic - but can any of you guys who've been in Ceuta tell me whether they have a wifi connection in the Marina. I know Smir has. And if any of you called in at Mellila - can you confirm whether it was working in there ? BTW - my partner looked into getting from ceuta...

    we are going to get a dog

    not 100% sure what sort of security your going to get out of a Jack Russel. There's different types of vaccination. Some are a single dose some have a follow up. The 6-8 weeks is a good amount of time to allocate to allow for stuffing around. We've not had anyone ask or care about our dog...

    Overseas Dog Insurance

    WI Fi

    Bayona marina marketing material says the have wifi - they dont. The yachting club at Baiona wouldn't let us in for some reason so dont rely on it. Cascais (portugal) marina has it as part of the berthing fee but you'll need an external arial. And yes £10 pm is a good price. BT openzone as a...
