Full of the usual old tosh...boats, farting cows, John Matthews dropping his car keys in the marina, loads of Med stuff, some Dutch stuff, a piece on why your boat is heaps better than your car, how to get shipwrecked in the Scillies, RIBs, engines, and a Phantom 40.
Where's the Agony Aunt's page. Dear Aunt Lucy, how can I fit all my shoes into the limited space on my boat. If your answer is 'you can't!!', then how can I choose which to keep on board and which to keep in storage elsewhere?
yours

Can't believe that anything built by Riva doesn't have enough stowage for 2 dozen pairs of court shoes, a dozen pairs of sling-backs, and a couple of pairs of mingin old Sebago deck shoes. Suggest you upgrade to a proper Italian boat...the Ferretti 760 has a special walk-in shoe locker designed with the help of Jimmy Choo.
Mine arrived by mail this morning -delivery is getting good. There's a Phantom 40 test, the boat is called Azlec, so in fact the culprit making big wash at Chi wasn't the guy mentioned in the other thread, rather twas the MBY team, tee hee. TCM's column is a good read, deja vu recent Happy1 thread
Dear Barefoot and happy of Brighton,
I am sorry to hear of your footwear problem - It's obvious that a lady of any standing must have elegant footwear for every concievable occasion. Handy Andy, the mags DIY expert, suggests you fit numerous shoe trees to the mast and any other drillable space on the vessel so that you may hang the shoes on the trees. Think also how useful they will be for hanging your Xmas decorations on.
Yours,
Agony Artie
Page 30, the boy TCM's column. Yer know, where he says "Doing things perfectly teaches you nothing at all". The deja vu is ref his post to happy when happy had proclaimed "I've been in the marines and all over the world and climbed everest and never had a problem, not even bust a fingernail" or something to that effect, and tcm told him that wasn't useful experience. Why am I spelling this out....?
A trainspotter mistake is that the keys in the pic are Vauxhall Astra or suchlike, hence can't be tcm's methinks.
Thank you for drawing my attention to the two rib ladies, most decorative
