Happy Birthday Alfie. Not seen you for ages. Hope all's well. Jim

Nice one Steve. She IS a lovely boat. Jim

If you've worked on Titanium you'll know what to expect Steve. Good luck. Jim

I can only guess that you've never machined Stainless steel Steve ? You need to run very slowly, Plenty of coolant, Don't allow the tools to dwell as it work hardens the stainless. All not easy for a DIY er not prepared for it. Jim

Happy Birthday Pete. Jim

Happy Birthday Steve. Hope it's a " Good un " Jim

Happy Birthday to the 3 of you. What a cracking day for it ! Jim

I can't remember EVER being called diplomatic before ?

No point arguing with a woman ! You'll lose ! ! ! Jim

I have found Golden arrow to be good in the past. Although they did keep phoning me at one stage asking me to pay VAT which I already had done. I know they're not cheap but it sounds more like a typing error to me. Speak to them in person. Speak to the engineer who worked on it and check if the invoice relates to the time spent. If it does then you can argue the amount on the grounds of they should have communicated an expected cost to you. Jim

Happy Birthday Graham. Are you still boating ? Whatever you're up to I hope You're having a good one ! Jim.

Lovely looking reels !

Happy Birthday Stuie. Plenty of Red wine & cake. Jim

I can just imagine that on Kingfisher ! something like . . . . . . " Oh look the little devil's squirted him . . . . " " Oh dear! . . . Oh My! . . . . "

Brilliant !

A very happy Birthday boys! 2 Andys for the price of 1 Make sure there's plenty of Beer & Cake. Jim

You don't need to cast Lofty. You're in stealth mode. Place the bait and then drift back to where your anchor is holding.

I've just bought some worms so I'm intending having a bit of a go anyway.

Moving to North Korea ? ? ? Don't play cards! You may get Trumped. Jim

Tough times Matt. There's no shortcut. It just takes time. Many of us in the club have been down that road and there's not much we can say or do to ease your pain. It WILL get easier with time and thinking of your dad will bring more smiles than tears ! ! Good luck. Jim

Happy Birthday Chris. Jim
