Re-opening to cars. i.e. Won't have at least one leaf permanently raised.

It'll probably be broken down by the 17th.

One day my housework-challenged  husband decided to wash his Sweatshirt. Seconds after he stepped  into the laundry room,  he shouted to me, 'What setting do I  use on the washing machine?'  'It depends,' I  replied.   'What does it say on your  shirt?' He yelled back, ' MANCHESTER UNITED '! And they say blondes are dumb.... ------------------------------ ------------------------------ ----   A couple is  lying in bed. The man says,'I am going to make you the happiest woman in the  world..' The woman replies, 'I'll  miss you........ ---------------------------- 'It's just too hot to  wear clothes today,' Jack says as he stepped out of the shower, 'honey,  what do you think the neighbours would think if I mowed the lawn like  this?' 'Probably that I married you for your money,' she  replied. ------------------------------ -------  ------ Q: What do you call an  intelligent, good looking, sensitive man? A: A rumour  ------------------------------ ------------- Dear Lord,  I pray for Wisdom to understand  my man; Love to forgive him; and Patience for his  moods. Because, Lord, if I pray for  Strength, I'll beat him to  death. AMEN   ------------------------------ ------------------------------ ------------------------------ ------------------------------ ------- Q: Why do little boys  whine? A: They are practicing to  be men.   ------------------------------ -------------------- Q: What do you call a  handcuffed man?

Good excuse to go fishing today, Can't waste the bait 😎

Mick had applied for a fermentation operator post, at a famous Irish firm, based in Dublin.    A Pole applied for the same job and since both applicants had similar qualifications, they were asked to take a test by the Manager. When the results were in, both men had scored 19 out of 20.  The manager went to Mick and said, "Thank you for coming to the interview, but we’ve decided to give the Polish man the job."   Mick said, "And why would you be doing that?  We both got 19 questions correct."   "This being Ireland and me being Irish, surely I should get the job." The Manager  said, "We have made our decision not on the correct answers, but on the question you got wrong.."   Mick exclaimed, "And just how would one incorrect answer be better than another?"   Manager, "Simple. On question number 7 the Pole wrote down, 'I don’t know.'   You put down,  “Neither do I.”

I use the boil again type when beach fishing.

Didn't see one person playing a fish. The mark is so secret even the flounders don't know where it is.  B)   Had to take MegaByte home to fix a problem with the Trim and Tilt, borrowed a trailer and spent a week fixing it. Got the boat home and it only took about an hour to fix. Just put her back on her berth at Cobbs now ready to go and catch the biggest flounder on Sunday

A doctor who had been seeing an 80-year-old woman for most of her life finally retired. At her next check-up, the new young doctor told her to bring a lislt of all the medicines that had been prescribed for her. Looking through these, his eyes grew wide as he realized Grandma had a prescription for birth control pills. "Mrs. Smith, do you realize these are birth control pills?" "Yes, they help me sleep at night." "Mrs. Smith, I assure you - there is absolutely nothing in these that could possibly help you sleep!" She reached out, patted the young doctor's knee and said, "Yes, dear, I know that. But every morning, I grind one up and mix it in the glass of orange juice that my 16-year-old granddaughter drinks. And believe me, it definitely helps me sleep at night." You gotta love Grandmas! **************** A man was riding on a full bus, minding his own business, when the gorgeous woman next to him started to breast-feed her baby. The baby wouldn't take it, so she said, "Come on, sweetie, eat it all up or I'll have to give it to this nice man next to us." Five minutes later the baby was still not feeding, so she said, "Come on, honey. Take it or I'll give it to this nice man here." A few minutes later the anxious man blurted out, "Come on, kid, make up your mind, I was supposed to get off four stops ago!" ****************** Students in an advanced biology class were taking their mid-term exam. The last question was, 'Name seven advantages of mother's milk.' The question was worth 70 points or none at all. One student was hard put to think of seven advantages. He wrote: 1) It is perfect formula for the child. 2) It provides immunity against several diseases. 3) It is always the right temperature. 4) It is inexpensive. 5) It bonds the child to mother and vice versa. 6) It is always available as needed. And then the student was stuck. Finally, in desperation, just before the bell rang indicating the end of the test, he wrote: 7) It comes in two attractive containers and it's high enough off the ground that the cat can't get it. .....He got an A. ************************* An old Italian man in Brooklyn is dying. He calls his grandson to his bedside. "Guido, I wana you lissina me. I wana you to take-a my chrome plated 38 revolver so you will always remember me." "But grandpa, I really don't like guns. How about you leave me your Rolex watch instead?" "You lissina me, boy! Somma day you gonna be runna da business, you gonna have a beautiful wife, lotsa money, a big-a home, and maybe a couple of bambinos Then one-a day you gonna come-a home and maybe finda you wife inna bed with another man. Whatta you gonna do then- pointa to you watch and say, 'Times up'? " ************** A woman and her 12-year-old son were riding in a taxi in Detroit. It was raining and all the prostitutes were standing under awnings. "Mom," said the boy, "what are all those women doing?" "They're waiting for their husbands to get off work," she replied. The taxi driver turned around and said, "Geez, lady, why don't you tell the kid the truth? They're hookers, boy! They have sex with men for money." The little boy's eyes got wide and he asked, "Is that true, Mom?" His mother, glaring hard at the driver, answered,"Yes." After a few minutes the kid asked, "Mom, if those women have babies, what happens to them?" She replied, "Most of them become taxi drivers." ************************* An elderly, but hardy, cattleman from Texas once told a young female neighbor that if she wanted to live a long life, the secret was to sprinkle a pinch of gunpowder on her oatmeal each morning. She did this religiously and lived to the ripe old age of 103. She left behind 11 children, 30 grandchildren, 41 great-grandchildren, five great-great-grandchildren..... and a 40-foot hole where the crematorium used to be. ****************

When I looked yesterday there was no detail, looks good now.

Rob I found that, but it's not an overlay on Google Earth as it used to be.

Just been looking for the Seabed mapping DORIS and the Poole Bay mapping in particular and can't find it now.

I assume you mean you renewed the gearbox oil? Sounds like you removed the pivot screw for the gear selector instead of the drain plug.

Happy birthday Duncan.

I'd suspect a bad connection somewhere.

Happy birthday Oli.

Have a good one.

Sometimes you must use the correct terminology! Some have asked what I'm going to be doing in retirement. Well, I applied for a building permit for a new house. It was going to be 100 ft tall and 400 ft wide, with 12 gun turrets at various heights, and windows all over the place and a loud outside entertainment sound system that was going to entertain the whole neighborhood. It would have parking for 200 cars, and I was going to paint it snot green with pink trim. The City Council told me; “Forget it...IT AIN'T GONNA HAPPEN!” So, I sent in the application again, but this time I called it a 'Mosque'. Work starts on Monday. I love this country. It’s the government that scares the crap out of me.

I hope you get it out ok.

I would be worried about the possibility of it causing a blockage. Can you drain all the oil out to give you more chance of retrieving it.

Having heard about some good plaice being caught near Stakes, I went out for about 3 hours Thursday evening, left Cobbs about 6pm. Drifted from Stakes to Aunt Betty, then motored back to the Ferry Terminal and drifted to Diver. Lovely flat calm and warm evening, but not a nibble. We could have got away with one worm each all evening.
