Still £20 for a 907 gaz at my local caravan shop. If they can do it for that price we the boaters are being ripped off again. I think we paid about that in the garage at Stromness during the summer. There seems to be a huge disparity in costs. No. We paid £29.99 in Stromness. In Lerwick they charge...

We seem to be in the right place for now. Orkney and Shetland have had mainly brilliant sunshine for the past 2-3 weeks. There was a very wet day in Fair Isle and a gale 2 weeks ago and some quite strong winds odd times but overall we've been having a very good time. We didn't expect it to be warm a...

Found it! Innotec Seal and bond remover. Bought about 12 years ago when we first discovered that masking tape shouldn't be left on for a week. It worked very well but was a bit expensive I think.

Yes there is (bond and seal solvent) and it is in the pile of stuff we just retrieved from Shard. I'll track it down sometime today.

I can just picture it. I hope he was in good form.

Easter weekend: Creagans Inn Friday, Lochaline social club Saturday, McGuigans Tobermory Sunday

God almighty. It's only November. Go out and sweep up some dead leaves or something.

See you there hopefully

We'll be joining on the Friday (starting from Dallens Bay) so we'll probably head south on the afternoon tide. Let's hope there's some wind so we can catch up.

They're not intended for 'normal use' dear. These are the fenestrated ones so obviously any enhancement to the glazing should be worth it in this climate.

Stirling Rowing Club has some rowing oars to sell to make room for new sculling oars. These are on offer to sailors at £50 an oar. If you are in the habit of renting oars from rowing clubs for the 3 Peaks Race and the like this might be of interest. Contact me by PM.

It's Dallens Bay. Shuna Sound is at the other Shuna next to Luing.

We have had a great time at Rathlin on several occasions in summertime but when we were there at Easter this year the pub wasn't serving food in the evening and they seemed a bit short of beer if I remember correctly. We gathered that it was a bit early in the year for visiting. It's tricky getting ...
