If you Google it, you'll find the ritual, it's something like a pint of beer for every club member at the next meeting I renamed 2 previous boats, I had no trouble with the first, but I had lots of engine problems with the last one, might have been connected with renaming it, although I'm not really superstitious, but I don't think I'd take the chance again!!! I'll second Elite signs by the Potters Arms Hamworthy, I had "MegaByte" for both sides and the stern plus "Poole" for the stern and it came to

Jim I see that you're not happy with one "Mummy", your boat has sprouted a second one to keep it company.

Divide the "Seconds" by 60 to convert to Decimal of a "minute". e.g: 50 41

Thanks Dave. After comparing the two, I'm going with Common Goby. Was that you I saw heading out past Old Harry Monday morning? I called you on the radio.

I should have said, it was about 4" long, I think it's a "Common Goby".

before I add this to my species list, I need to be sure what it is, can you help? I think it's a Goby.

Hello Jay Kay Are you local to Poole? If you are try to get along to the next club meeting. You'll get a very warm welcome, it's next Thursday at Parkstone Trades and Labour Club. If you're worried about the depth in Cobbs I assume you're on the far side of 'F' pontoon, I used to have a 20ft boat along that side and never had any trouble with the depth, just keep well away from the bank at low water.

As from Monday 5th October the 12:00 lift will revert to 12:30. See local notice to mariners 11/09. Timetable

A young girl on a year's training course in South Africa recently received a "Dear John" letter from her boyfriend back home. It read as follows: Dear Mary, I can no longer continue our relationship. The distance between us is just too great. I must admit that I have cheated on you twice, since you've been gone, and it's not fair to either of us. I'm sorry. Please return the picture of me that I sent to you. Love, John Mary, with hurt feelings, asked her colleagues for any snapshots they could spare of their boyfriends, brothers, ex-boyfriends, uncles, cousins etc. In addition to the picture of John, Mary included all the other pictures of the pretty lads she had collected from her buddies. There were 57 photos in that envelope along with this note: Dear John, I'm so sorry, but I can't quite remember who you are. Please take your picture from the pile, and send the rest back to me. Take Care, Mary

Dave If the indicator lamp is blown, there won't be an exitation current to start the altenator charging. Being a diesel your revcounter is almost certainly driven by the altenator, so no output = no revcounter.

As far as I know, the Sept comp is the only "Open" comp. I think the small change to the rules to allow Kayaks to fish in pairs makes sense.

For some time many of us have wondered just who is Jack Schitt? We find ourselves at a loss when someone says, 'You dont know jack schitt!' Well, thanks to my geneology efforts, you can now respond in an intellectual way. Jack schitt is the only son of Awe schitt, the fertilizer magnate, married O.Schitt, the owner of Needeep N. Schitt, Inc. They had one son, Jack. In turn, Jack Schitt married Noe Schitt. The deeply religious couple produced six children Holie Schitt, Giva Schitt, Fulla Schitt, Bull Schitt and the twins Deep Schitt and Dip Schitt. Against her parents' objections Deep Schitt married Dumb Schitt, a high school dropout. After being married 15 years, Jack and Noe Schitt divorced. Noe Schitt later married Ted Sherlock, and because her kids were living with them, she wanted to keep her previous name. She was known as Noe Schitt Sherlock. Meanwhile, Dip Schitt married Loda Schit, and they produced a son with a rather nervous disposition named Chicken Schitt. Two of the other six children, Fulla Schitt and Giva Schitt, were inseperable throughout childhood and subsequently married the Happens Brothers in a dual ceremony. The wedding announcement in the newspaper announced the Schitt-Happens nuptials. The Schitt-Happens childrens were dawg, byrd and Horse. Bull Schitt the prodigal son, left home to tour the world. He recently returned from italy with his new italian bride, Pisa Schitt. Now when someone says, 'You dont know Jack Schitt,' you can correct them. Sincerley Crock O. Schitt

Thanks Guys Grandson keeps reminding me that I was beaten by an 8 year old.

Hi Allan You should have come over for a chat. I have to say I don't really like baiter, I had to wade too far. Think I'll take a years' pass for Cobbs from 1st April, their year runs 1st April to 31st March with no reduction for part year.

The weather and other things finally let me launch MegaByte for it's maiden voyage yesterday (Sunday). I'm delighted and can't get over how quiet the engine is. Here's the first fish to ever come aboard, a small bass caught by my Grandson, I blanked (my excuse is that I wasn't really fishing, I was counting canoes, as I was a race marshall).

Maiden voyage will be tomorrow, I'm one of the safety boats for the Poole Harbour Kayak race. That should be one of the Marshall Boats.

You need a "Short Range Certificate (SRC) Licence". Do a Google search for RYA courses in your area for GMDSS VHF. The course is one day, but you need to learn the Phonetic Alphabet before you go. You also need a Ships Licence, you can apply online, it's free (if you apply by post it's

Ian Pity about the one HarryS had for sale, that sounded a very good buy. Good luck, I'm sure you'll find one, but be patient and the right one will come along. Have you looked on Boats and Outboards, there's one HERE he's asking

Therapy Two women were playing golf. One teed off and watched in horror as her ball headed directly toward a foursome of men playing the next hole. The ball hit one of the men. He immediately clasped his hands together at his groin, fell to the ground and proceeded to roll around in agony. The woman rushed down to the man, and immediately began to apologise. 'Please allow me to help. I'm a Physical Therapist and I know I could relieve your pain if you'd allow me, she told him. 'Oh, no, I'll be all right. I'll be fine in a few minutes,' the man replied. He was in obvious agony, lying in the fetal position, still clasping his hands there at his groin. At her persistence, however, he finally allowed her to help. She gently took his hands away and laid them to the side, loosened his pants and put her hands inside. She administered tender and artful massage for several long moments and asked, 'How does that feel'? Feels great, he replied; but I still think my thumb's broken!
