Blimmin\' typical!!!

Looks like summer has finally graced us with it's presence, and where is my boat?
Out of the water !
Suffered loss of forward motion on port engine ( yes, it's a Volvo ) upon inspection, found water in leg oil.
Problem tracked down to propellor shaft oil seal, unfortunately, it's also wiped out a couple of bearings ( ouch£££££)
Hopefully, back on the water before weekend.

In the style of the famous Monty-Python sketch.....

You were lucky!! The weather were so bad oop North we 'ad to dig oursel's out o' snow drift to get to our ice breaker, that were left to us by Shackleton 'imself.

Bearin's... what bearin's....we 'ad to mine the steel to smelt our own, while me father beat me wi' a cane!! And still the bleedin' summer didn't arrive....and looks like it never will

At the end of the game, the King and the Pawn go back in the same box.
