I think they set the Autopilot then go off to get a G&T ð

My Dad was from the industrial north. His favourite was Used engine oil mixed with Creosote. It was superb and thieves hated it! Not sure it looked pretty enough for these days and wouldn't comply with safety "box ticking" though. ð

Next year, find a boat polisher who needs a bit of sparky work doing ! Mutual "back scratching" ð Jim

You can if your wallet is big enough Mick. I used to protect my boat from the sun by growing veg all over it. ð

Thanks Graham. I ordered the: Hawke Endurance ED 8x42 Monocular today. Amazon prime so I'll get them tomorrow. I had a ÂĢ10 discount to use up so that helped. I saw the 42 was lens size. The other end is 80mm so hope it's not too big. The next size down looked too small to me. Just hope she likes it. ð

Thanks Charlie. She's tried a few Binos and hates them. She's had some Monoculars but only dirt cheapo jobs and likes not having to fiddle about or having size & weight problems. They just go in her pocket.

Thanks Pete. It'll be a surprize so no testing. She needs something easy to use and lightweight as she'll have it in her pocket. Also she needs it to be stable whilst in her hand (something she's not good at)

Don't know anything about this subject So can I ask. . . . . . 8 x 42 is 8 x magnification? What's the 42 ? After seeing the above posts I'm looking at maybe this: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Hawke-Endurance-ED-10x42-Monocular/dp/B0786NNRPW/ref=sr_1_3?crid=TOB5REJ9TPJ6&keywords=Hawke%2BEndurance%2BED%2Bmonocular&qid=1683798999&sprefix=hawke%2Bendurance%2Bed%2Bmonocular%2Caps%2C172&sr=8-3&th=1 Jackie can't use binoculars but has used monoculars before. It's nearly her Birthday and as she loves looking at "stuff" when we're out. I thought it may be a good all rounder for a beginner. All answers need to be simple . . . . . so even I can understand them. ð Ta. Jim

Our internet gets slow during the day so an early start (05:30) to upload a few more vids. That's going a bit faster than it did yesterday. ð 4K videos are very large files but we're getting there. Then back onto some CAD work. ð This retirement is great. . . . . . . . . "Lolling about" doing nothing all day! ð

Sorry for the delay. I've started uploading some Videos to our Youtube Channel at last. https://www.youtube.com/@pbsbac1

Probably a good plan Chris. I should do it too (but don't tell Jackie) ð
