Blimey Dan ! You must be an old codger by now ! Welcome back. Jim

In my SPARE time . . . . . . . . . . . . We cleaned the pond out due to cracks and lined it. We had to make it frog friendly or as Wallace & Gromit would say " innable & outable " So I dreamed up a Frog Walkway for them. Just fitted it in place. And Zoomed in: Posh Frogs !

Just done these two. Varnished Oak & Oiled Mahogany. Very pleased with the results.

Bloody good Idea ! 😉

I may be missing something but........... You said . . . . . . . . " busy in the summer down there but I get mine out every time as insurance doesn't cover the boat left on the water without me on it. " Sometimes they all go home and if you're not back in time your boat stays tied up to the pontoon. If I'm wrong then just ignore me but please check every possibility and make sure you're covered. Always worth more £'s on the premium to be sure you're protected. Just my own thoughts. Jim

Happy Birthday Young Jacob! Not many years ago I remember fishing for Bream near Ballard and heard an ear piercing shout " Dolphins " When I asked who it was I was told " Jacob " and saw a little lad on Grandad's boat. That was our first meeting although we didn't actually meet. I've watched over the years and know just how proud your Grandad is of you. 16 is a major milestone so enjoy your birthday and enjoy adulthood. Enjoy. Jim

Happy Birthday Derek. Jim

Happy Birthday Tony. Hope you've taken the day off and gone fishing! Maybe time to give it all up now and become a man of leisure! Have a good one! Jim

Welcome to the club. Jim

Happy Birthday Ben. Are you nipping out as the weather's good or is work putting the "Kybosh" on it? You'll have to have an extra slice of cake then. Jim

I was confused why you had a picture of me on the stern Martin ? ? ? It's OK it's just my reflection! ! What a shine! Luuuuuuuvvvvly ! I need to get Tiddler polished up now.

Happy Birthday Matt. 39 Can't go fishing so you'd better have another Cake! Jim
