I went down to the boat, and tried to fix one of the bogs. The one the kids use, of course, again. Dismantled the whole thing, to find several olive stones in the thing. Since it has had a bit of a beatingovr the years i failed to getit working, and also I erm slightly busted the lectric motor for no good reason. But anyway at least that made it broken good and proper for the reatof the weekend,so no chance of fixing it till find new parts.
This evening back at the ranch i ticked off son#1 about eating olive pits and these were quite large one, so don't do that for crissakes, i toldim. He said fair enuf sorry BUT in mitigation he said that it was during a visit to see Mr and Mrs L that he was plied with giant olives, supplied by Mrs L, and the bog was broken within 24 hours after that, and we only buy olives with no stones innem anyway don't we dad? Yep, that's true. Hence i'm afraid it's obviously her fault, sort of, a bit.
