Very good! it took a while, and I could hear the cogs going round, but very, very good.

However, you seem to have subscribed to the Pash1 school of the misunderstanding of differing classes and their natural pecking order.

Go back and write 100 lines. "I am a fool"

We will be keeping "newts" in it afterwards. Did you fancy a BGPG boat ?


Mike

[Jon Fuller]

Oops!

Thought you were talking to me! I am so used to you throwing insults at me (your favourite offspring), my reaction was a reflex.

I take it all back, you're not a fool.

Again that word "elucidate" appears . Perhaps you could do so on the matter of which engines fit in which classes ???
More to the point 6.2s in class D Marathon


Mike

[Jon Fuller]

Yes, 6.2's definitely fit in class D. Of that I'm positive.

Not even as a fish pond with with a little Ginger Newt in it ?

Could be a talking point at summer barbecues ....

We could have Ginger in there with Kitten discussing how best to build a Scrapheap ladder to escape , Or do you think they would never agree ...?

Mike

He'd be discussing / arguing with himself, and I'd already be home with the other Newts. Voooooom

[kitten]

I can't discuss things with meself, the other voices drown me out.

Obviously you have much too much free time on your hands but I have to admit it is funny. I thought Jules was going to wet herself when she saw it.

Thats one helluva design Frank !

I really appreciate your input. Do you mind if I incorporate some of the features into the 34 or is this an exclusive adaptation of something that Goldfish have done for your use only ?

I take it that there is a disabled toilet fitted so that the Health and safety people are satisfied 'cos you know how us oldies can get caught short.

Thanks again , Its really heartwarming to see the concern for the aged turn into practical usability.

Initially I thought about patenting it for ourselves, but then I said to myself that I could finally give something back to Mr Lloyd for all his efforts in RB08 . Feel free to use it - will be amusing to see how the hatch will cope with 2 m waves off north scotland... Is also veeeery practical when carrying all those teabags and bisquits onboard.

The boat looks fantastic - can't wait to see you on the start line (incidently the last time you'll see us before catching up with us in the bar )

Best regards,

Eirik

So you are running in C class ?

Hopefully, yes. C-sport is my best guess at this time, but we haven't committed to anything yet. Only thing important is to beat Fuller (again) in something inflateable

Thats cool! As long as you're in D , or C. And if you are (in D or C), and don't beat us by a country mile, i'll be the first to interrogate you to find out why you didn't. If you're in E, stop dreaming, you've had your lotto win, it won't come a second time!
