That's the problem with old threads, the video has disappeared.

I did wonder why there wasn't a trace - I'm on my fone and can see nothing. I take it that it is the one of getting ashore from a certain cat?

Cue a link to the video of the dinghy in a New York street with the same participant.

Ash - just off the bus back from Oban - have been a tourist in the rain showers and using the boat as a caravan - still in Croabh.

Had a good downpour or two here today, complete with rumbles and flashes. It's still sultry.

See PM about W/E.
