    Now Wait A Minute

    Hello...

    Does all this mean that the point of designing boats and building boats is for the sensible joy found in actually using the damned things too...

    I seem to have missed that third bit...

    Good observation there Sean ! :D

    Manie, WHERE THE HELL IS THE FISH PICTURES :D All that distance travelled WASTED, all the time on the water WASTED. Do one have to tell you guys EVERYTHING :(

    Looks like you've been painting or what's the white stuff on your nose and face ?

    Ok, I admit I'm jealous. You should have taken me along.
    At least you wouldn't have had to come home because the food is up :D

    Went to the Shanghai boat show, quite good, pity the boats aren't the same.
    I did see however a very good example of the art of boatbuilding, and congratulated the builder, simply fantastic.

    This weekend I did this:
    Cross country skiing 2 x 20 km wet snow, beautiful weather.:D
    (actually it's warmer/ less snow than usual... that creek should't show up this "early...")

    There must be summat you can do mas, Are you all kitted up and ready. Building a boat like this needs special equipment.

    Lets just run through a few things before the start.

    kettle, tea bags, dart board, Pirelli calender, toilet roll string and nail.

    Got all except Pirelli calendar - I suppose I will have to wait till the female workers arrive, disrobe and stand in a corner and wait?

    All things come to pass for those who wait, including apprentice plumbers who are sent to get a long weight before the develop an exposed crack when they kneel or bury their upper torso inder the kitchen bench to fix some plumbing... Oh sorry this is not the plumbing thread - -

    Frosty the heading for this thread says so? I think perving on female plumbers is best, but maybe gays and wimen have a different interest on their a-gender.... Who were you perving on, up there in Thailand?

    Fanie, - - - - waiting for the next weekend whilst I am in a bludging mood...

    If I can catch one ---this weekend thing, I usually stay in and hide from traffic. I get cought out frequently,--only noticing my mistake by the traffic surounding the traffic lights on Sukumvit road.

    In such cases I turn the bike round and go get the small one and get down the brothel and make a serious attempt at making a fool of myself.


    Psssst I dont really but thats what U like to think.
