I contacted the guy who does my boat lifts .. he has truck with flat bed and 10 ton lift arm ...

Latvia celebrates Mid Summer - (Ligo) .. and it really is a national drinking time ... this year its 4 days long ! But does not start till next week.

Crane operator said AFTER Ligo he would lift my boat ... I asked if he had other jobs now ... no - its Ligo ...

The weather is gorgeous boat weather ...

I asked around if anyone else ... but no-ones interested - its Ligo !
 
IIRC you have another 3 or 4 boats :p
enjoy the ones already in the water instead?
it's the same with 15th Aug celebrations down here, a couple of days before and after that only restaurants and cafes are open if you want something done you either have to do it yourself or wait...

Same in the north of Italy, EVERYTHING shut in August. No chance of any sort of service and most of the independent shops shut all month.
 
Can you lend us your weather if you're not needing it then. It's vile over here, as you'd expect as we're just about to head off for our two-weeker.
 
1. So if 21st June is still Midsummer's Day, and the seasons are each three months long, why do I get all sorts of idiots trying to tell me that Summer doesn't start until 1st June, or even the 21st, God help us, rather than 1st May?
2. For parties hoping for a "Remain" result in any future Northern Ireland Border Poll the best time to schedule it would be between 12th and 25th July, when those most likely to vote "Leave" are out of the country?

Summer solstice (first day of summer) 21st June, midsummer’s day 24th of June. Go figure…. :mad:
