Last weekend pictures

[epervier]

Again a great weekend with very variable conditions;-

Saturday afternoon blue skies and warmth

0530 Sunday morning peasoup!

Sunseeker in the mist

still in the mist displacement speed

coming into view

safe haven home pontoon, after a close encounter with an IOW ferry in the fog, even she was at very slow speed almost no wash from her, are passenger vessels required by rules to drop to such a low speed in fog?

About 0700 the sun burnt through, but still a bank of fog in the main channel in the background of this photo

spent the rest of Sunday at church fettlin' /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

it's a club flag, in our case, a triangular shape, blue in colour, with a depiction of a rodent drinking from a cocktail glass, or some would say a champagne glass, but those that know, champagne is served chilled in flutes /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

 

[Mymobo]

Which club is that for then?

 

[epervier]

YBW forum.

IE members of this forum /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

send HLB some beer tokens and a large sae and he will send you return post, you'll have to pm him first to get his address etc.

nicked this image from a earlier post by Solitaire, but I'm sure he won't mind, as he failed to put copyright on this one /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

 

[Mymobo]

Cheers

thank you for your compliment, but, it's Stainless Steel not chrome, chromium plating wouldn't last one season in salt water usage.

thanks for the compliment, I like her, she's big enough to stay aboard for a week or so and small enough to be able to feed her without breaking the bank /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif
