Ring 34 update – July 3rd.

Still putting on endless coats of paint on the plug of the deck but almost there now. Polishing next - ugh!

Also, cleaning up the hull mould ready to take out No 1 which will be for the race boat unless outstanding orders take precedent – hope not, not a lot of time left!

Tom Petty is magic! he is looking more like a skelton than ever recently though.

Much praise Mike, Jonny Fuller needs as much musical help as he can get. Last time i was at his place he had some old 7" on the go "airport" by the Motors!

Whilst your story is as usual, a complete fabrication, I do love that track, and am proud to say so.

Wax on / Wax off - Wax on / Wax off ! Blooming 'eck it's getting tight but I have faith in the Ring Team at the base. They are working their sock's off. She is looking good though.
