Keeping an eye on everybody in the Strait

[Major Catastrophe]

I now have broadband connected to my dockside home and can keep an eye out on all the comings and goings.

Who is going to own up to leaving the outer harbour at 4.30 PM and heading towards Menai Bridge, but with no nav lights on?

Half an hour later I was stood chatting to Tom of Little Ship and we both witnessed your return, but this time lit up like a Christmas tree.

Your crewman looked a bit ropey.

I am going out to dinner tonite. No wall and hopefully, no X Factor.

UPDATE: They made me watch the X Factor.

I was forced last night to have a drink with some of our PD residents, the said bounder who left without nav light denied all knowledge of said offence and then stated that Breeza had the rear light obscured by the dingy.......Opps I said which boat it was.

Broadband, eh, in your dockside house, hmmm?


When are you setting up a webcam for us all to keep an eye on the weather? (& Kwaka's lights)

 

[Major Catastrophe]

Lots of pictures

Yes, I spoke to the almost un-named miscreant while using a few litres of HIS petrol driving his borrowed 300HP RIB up the Strait.

I was shown the alleged hidden light and was of the opinion that even if it was obscured by the dinghy there would be some light escaping.

After the trip out - it was very cold but the sight of the fog banks and the sun were mesmerizing - we repaired to philz bateau to partake of tea and bikkies. With six people, two dogs and a parrot we were of the opinion Philz need a new boat.....prontoish.

Liz took 200-300 pics of our RIB trip which I hope she posts on this forum. But here are some I took.

And finally Liz.

I should add that we saw some extraordinary water conditions. At one point it was like riding the bubbles from lava lamp.

Yes, fully broadbanded now, so I can work here, punctuated by a bit of boating. Don't know how to set up a webcam.

Ok Ok , I own up.

We snuck out to the fuel berth in the Gloaming.
Slipped a few litres into BRIZA and snucked out again.
'Pay yer termorrer, tarra' says I.

Slipped away nicely unoticed thought I!

Dammit, caught red (diesel) handed it seems

So I 'lit up' on the way back thinking, 'they' would be thinking I was a new arrival:rolleye

Hope none of you are near Haydn's MF, coz Kwackers is attempting to get cold fusion going to remove the build up of nuclear waste in his "sewer".

No, MF is safely tucked up miles away from my house the Y Felinheli protest one. Prevailing winds will take any fallout away from us.

Don't know who you think you saw with no lights but it definitely wasn't Briza. See, you know how Liz photographs and videos everything hoping for £250 off Beadle (or whoever his successor is) well she videoed us leaving on Briza, lights clearly on and shining brightly. So .
I thought the crew were pretty good meself

We have some good photos from yesterday too but can't put em on yet as internet isn't working at home. I'll post them asap.

I never mentioned which boat it was. So there!

Anyway, it is a big tender obscuring the stern light.

Thanks for the hospitality on your boat. First time I've managed to get a cup of tea out of you two.

You're welcome, that tea bag was nearly new too!

 

[Major Catastrophe]

The bikkie selection was pretty poor and the bowl of snacks tasted like Koi carp food.

 

[Philiz]

They were dog biscuits and that was Koi carp food, the swans love it!

So we got a second-hand tea bag, dog biscuits and fish food. I dare not ask where the milk came from.

Ah, that was leftover from when Kwackers and his pal were carrying out recent works to MF. For some reason no-one else wanted to take it home.

It's all right MC complaining about the hospitality he gets aboard others.

Major Whens the house warming and pissup.????
We all assume there WILL BE ONE.
MC thinks O me poor new house Kwackers and that Old Silt will wreck the place.

That's a very good point! I'd forgotten about the housewarming party, New Years Eve sounds a good date to me. No need for posh invites MC, I'll nail a notice on yer door
