Mishaps and Memories

Apr. 18, 2005 - Oh.. and by the way...

This boat lark is costing a fortune....

I dread to think how much extra i've already spent on her...... flares, compasses, torch, black diamond and ball, more lifejackets, charts... etc etc etc etc etc etc.....

Another Ł100 today on various charts...

And must mention Tony and Rod... the brave fellas who are helping me bring Magna Carter round to Ipswich... I'm not sure they appreciate what they've let themselves in for yet...

And trying to arrange how to get the three of us to start and finish with kit, and without spending a fortune on train fares is taxing.... ho hum... looks like i'd better start being nicer to the missus... (SWMBO - see ybw.com forums if you don't get that... and get an education!)
