The Fake Tan effect is me simply basking in the glow radiated by the well known Ginger Bears thatch !
As for Andy Mc Gregor I am sure he had his mucking furds wuddled when he was so excited by the new boat on our stand. There was much gesticulating and talk of wanting one of the new Fantring 31 hulls that Ginger splashed with the help of the Devon Rub-a-Dub men.
As for the Boatmad sticker it would be churlish for me not to reciprocate in kind on the 31 , so we did !
Mike

3 & 4) Wanting to reciprocate on the sticker front, Mike & Andy very kindly and very secretly re-badge 'SwipeWipes' as a Ring Powercraft! I ask you! The shame of it!!!!!!
5) With his Megga-Tan® still looking absolutely radiant, the deal is done, Mike buys the entire stock of Super Swipewipes, Suction Coolies & Tee Shirts from Nicks stand in an effort to buy our silence on the
"unfolding 'Megga-Tan®' story." (Don't worry, your secret's safe with us Mike)

The word went round the kebab stalls that you were to appear, then you did not and now Kangaroo Valley is knee deep in unsold Bluebottle Kebabs !!

Not with my old, bad eyes you can't. I can only see a badly cluttered transom layout due to the knee(s) being in the wrong place. Ho Hum.

OK, my bad, but I thought the full size pencil drawing ON THE TRANSOM ITSELF would suffice. (along with the TWO emails.)
