Why does it have to float? Make a platform with long legs and sink it in a couple feet of water..... Hopefully it will be more stable...

Pay attention, I'm referring to the rubber rafts, not the pvc raft.

Romantic occassions are supposed to end up with a nooky at the end of the evening. May I suggest you and your wife do the nooky bit first in case you drown her.

The ever wise Pioda may just have something there. Concidering the overwhelming possability of a wet and therfore nooky'less evening.

The only romantic evening you will have is you searching in mud on your own in the moonlight for a single high heeled sling back.

I lost one of mine that way, it was a devil to find.

Oh by the way ---6 days left!!!

Charter a boat for a couple of hours it will be better. Women are a bit funny,--Well a lot funny actually. she may well have been attracted to the little romantic raft and the people on it but never expecting to go on one herself.
I would show her the picture again and check out if she really wants this or you could be going to a lot of trouble for a nooky-less evening.

Under no circumstances be tempted to nooky on the raft -you will set up a tsunami that will erode the natural river banks and wash away nearby homes.

Use the least expensive soil pipes you can source. Although this is the UK site for Wickes,

http://www.wickes.co.uk/bin/venda?ex...t&bsref=wickes

the three pages for soil and vent items will show you what is possible. £1 = $2

The 2 metre soil pipes on page 3 are not heavy. I can carry five.

Enjoy the build.

Sequen all I could get was their main page, then what would you expect from a company that spells it's own name wrong.
