Depending on shape, I know an old fat bloke who would like first shout please. Jim

You can always tell when the weather's sh*te ! Jim

Dogs Danglies. Jim

Chucked my old design on Tiddler tonight. They're not suitable, so I need to get conjuring. Jim

I don't want to spoil my figure Brian ! ! !

Rob, You're the man in charge. Whatever you and your advisors decide is good enough for Me ! Thanks very much for all your hard work organising this. Cheers. Jim

My father - in - law has a suitable saying for this changing weather forcast. " Up and down like a wh*re's Draws " Jim

Hiya Tom. I use 3D Cad for a living. I couldn't find anything suitable for my Warrior, so I designed my own. I had them built by my Ex - boss Tony O'Callaghan ( Club member cullodon ) here: Email: [email protected] Robton Engineering LLP 28 Balena Close Creekmoor Ind. Estate Poole Dorset BH17 7EB Tel: 01202 695480 Fax: 01202 658899 We were so pleased with the result that we started selling them. Tony has a Raider 18 moored at Christchurch. I know he's in France until the weekend, but you could give his Son and business partner Steve a call if you wish Hope this helps. Jim

Hi Rich, Welcome to the Club. Jim

Perhaps the weather is Female ! ! If so she could change her mind many more times before the weekend. Jim

I hope to Trev. I'd like to try for some Bass at some stage. Jacqi's cracked ribs are improving so I may even have a Galley Slave with me. Jim

Oh yeah ! I forgot to say - - - - Just paid for a year's Cobb's slipway pass so hoping to get out a bit more. Jim

Saw Mr. & Mrs. Mal Thomas at the show. They said they saw me over Christchurch in Tiddler. I wasn't there so it seems we may have been naughty and nicked someone elses Name. Oops ! Oh well, we're not gonna change it. Jim Cheers for the photo Chris.

Thanks Tony & Martin. Good of you to use the trick lens to make me look fat. Jim

Don't stretch the FPO's purse too far. Leave enough for some INSURANCE. Good luck. Jim

Alas, It seems times are hard and there's no jobs out there so they have to steal to put food on the table. Perhaps a nice little swim with some dolphins will show them the error of their ways. Sorry for you Tomo. Jim

I hope you win it Bob See you at the weigh in. Jim

Very Sorry. Jim

Thanks for that Graham. The Cat Stephen bit threw me at first. . . . . I thought he was gonna burst into song ! I knew Cinders hadn't been out for a while - - - - I often see her sisters out on the Quay on Friday Nights. Jim

Welcome Gordon. Jim

Hi Rob, Have you been on a boat with an E-Tec ? They are very good y'know. Having said that, this Honda is very smooth and quiet. You're right about the bling though ! - - - - I don't half miss them Rod Holders. I'll have to get busy " Conjuring " Cheers Matey. Jim

Not out Saturday Brian, But went out on Sunday to get some hours on the engine. Lovely boat, Lovely engine. On the rare ocasions that we get a calm sea, It'll fly. It was quite lumpy outside of the harbour yesterday but she was happy enough at 16 to 18 knots. Then nipped over to the Family Day. The chapman boys ( and a young lady ) went swimming Serenity was hosing a Bar-B. Thanks Lorraine for feeding me I left early to get some more hours on my engine, but by the time I got back to the harbour entrance, it had got quite " snotty " so I thought I would get back to Cobb's to miss the busy bit ( wrong ) Although it was busy, it was quite orderly and I don't think I made too much of a hash of it ( first time out ) ( and on my own too ). My thoughts so far - - - - - - - It's not a Warrior, but for ease of launching and retrieval and general handling etc. It's Wicked ! ! ! Jim

Happy Birthday Dan. Just a baby yet. A long way behind Martin & Me Jim

We've not seen much of Bob recently so I suppose we should've expected it. He's a true Gent and I miss seeing him at the meetings. Send him my best please Adam As for JV, That sounds like a cracking deal for someone. Good luck in finding a suitable partner. Cheers. Jim

Here she is folks. Remember me saying something about " Dogs and Dangly bits ? " What a little Belter! I need to get busy on a design for some rod tubes now. I need a favour. Anyone who's going on the family day, - - - - - - - Please take lots of photos of Tiddler. We always struggle to get photos of our boats on the water. Thanks in advance. Jim
