Welsh Water Beckons.......
« on: December 10, 2006, 05:16:49 PM »
As our water bill has got higher than wot I spend on petrol, I've got the urge to float something instead of (or as well as) trying to fly things in our now, never calm, free air :(

Look! I had a go at an MTB a while back and had my high speed fun.....

I've always admired the Waverley - might even find out what the beer's like on it, if it ever paddles back this way one day :lol:

Now that I'm here, my head spins at 200 rpm with ideas from paddle tugs to  a sternwheeler with a CD of the "Firehouse Five" jamming away to get the ducks fired up on the local lake!

Thanks for having me :)

Welcome Ade, youve joined a jolly bunch of maniacs - sorry I meant mechanics- never could spell. As to the Waverley , she visits your area EVERY year for a month in May/June and picking up passengers on your part of the welsh coast almost every day. Come and join us you will have a great time. As for the beer, we sell a lot of it, but Iam a real ale man, and it wont keep on a moving ship! If you do decide to sail, I will be volunteer shoppie ang general nuisance on board for about 2 weeks so come and show your face. (We do a nice set of plans for a fiver). Once again, Welcome.  Regards, walter.
Blessed are the "cracked" -for they let in the light for the rest of us.

Blood pressure steaming up :o

Thanks Walter - we'll start camping at Penarth or Newport in the Spring.... but can I buy these plans yesterday, please?  Then I can start cadding and exposing my attempts on the thread in "construction"....

Getting excited now, better walk down and get some Carling (sorry!  :shock: )
