BLUEMOMENT

Just home from the pleasantest of few days in God's Country.
Ma fine shup has wintered well and is in all aspects 'ready for sea' apart from the replacement wheelhoosie windie which disnae fit. The thing has been made by a firm in Kent.

There was a new window fae Kent,
Which to fit, would need to be bent
At Ardfern they did shriek
When the fekkin' thing leaked
So back down to Kent it got sent.

And I was going to ask you for the source as mine are crazed. I'll stand by.

"Just home from the pleasantest of few days in God's Country."

I was in New Zealand for a few days too. Didn't see you there.

The ones on the corners are fine Bill, it's the one directly in front of the wheel that is the problem.
As you say, we'll wait and see - they hope to have it done by Friday this week.

My mother is most disappointed in me. I have been watching Claymore's progress in Ardfern. I thought the polythene sheet window was a permanent fixture...

If this goes on much longer it will be.....

Wullykins - when are you around? If the windae gets sorted I'll be up to shift into Octopus Lagoon. Aff tae the land of snotnasen on June 26th so would be hoping it would all have fitted into place by then. I also owe you some beer and snackeroonies I believe...

The Fleckmeister - Sound Man that he is, has alerted me to the fact that ma fine shup will be performing the slipway shuffle within hours.

Well, yer radio wurks, we only heard the Belfast bit though.
