For cripes sake, Haydn, its about time you got a decent digicamera and learnt how to hold it still !!!!!
Mind you, can understand why the subject matter gave you a violent attack of the shakes.....must be a long time since youve seen sights llike that, surprised your memory kicked in and made you realise it might be of interest to us younger folk....../forums/images/icons/laugh.gif

Re: The big picture

Mr Grumpy was very friendly next morning, but then Mrs Grumpy was not with him. He did however have two becoming bits of totty with him, so maybe that had improved his temperment!!

Re: The big picture

In Falmouth we moored alongside a moonraker wot had come from Hull!!

MoBike.sized.jpg


The bloke was asking why it did not go so fast and smoked alot.

I sujested new filters and solltron and hinted on the fact that he was carrying quite alot of gear.../forums/images/icons/laugh.gif

Next day he said that just before the trip, he went out and the sea came through the window screen and he had to call out the life boat, The crew jumped aboard and covered the hole with materesses and tied them down, then pumped all the waves back out of the engine room. Then towed him back on account of his engines had stopped.

Then he said. It's funny but when I think about it, it's never run right since!!! It's not had a service or anything.

I'd been tidying Muckies hawser locker and came across two rock solid ropes that would have made better clothes props. So thinking that they would make a suitable acompanyment to all the other gear on the Moonraker. I gave them to him.../forums/images/icons/laugh.gif
