That is a wimpy flow of water - is the tank leaking? or the pilot having a pee? or it's so dry that the water evaporates as soon as it is released? - shoulda used dry water - does not evaporate...

G'day stranger, how is the gorilla living in Melbourne?

Rugging up for winter and squeezing the last few trips out of my fast fouling craft... Chose the wrong anti-foul this year! Bother!... got a hot tip for next season, lets hope it lasts better. Thoughts of winter breaks in the land of queens are developing

Hope all is well with you... off to watch TopGear now, love those mad POM's.
