yep they are doing it for charity wearing shorts for a year so maybe ask him for his sponsorship form if you feel like helping him

hi what was the site called

hi anybody frozen in yet

lets have a look they were educated enough to know the dog wasnt chipped they were educated enough to tie nots and educated enough to know that if you leave the dog in the water long enough it would drown.So i think its reasonable to assume that they know killing something is wrong. Is that what your going to say when some little scrote comes up and says sorry im not educated give me your phone or ill stab you or ill tie a cable round your neck and throw you in the cut where it would be deep enough to drown you.Mind you the amount you like to stick your neck out there probably isnt anywhere deep enough to drown you .

:angry2: :angry2: :angry2: im that upset i cant think of much to say to the culprits but just please someone give me 5 mins with the bastards and they wont be walking right for a long time. About 20 years ago whilst out on motorbike going up to the Dales came across some (((*&^%$£"! dragging a dog behind his car with one of his mates.We surrounded car took dog off rope and dealt out some severe justice to these men ? i had that dog for 12 years best dog ive ever had .

you could use water risistant mdf its pretty good ive left precatted mdf outside for 2 years and they are still intact they have been subject to sub zero conditions .This was not done for a use reason just an interest reason

thanks i didnt realise how big the thing was until i started painting and the coach line were a heck of a job

and one later with paint and in the water before fitting it out

just thought id try to post a photo as its my first attempt this is when id not been started long just primer and blacking done plus some plexi glass stuck to inside of windows by the previous owner of boat

just wondering if anyone knows of a wooden boat that needs renovating i was going to buy one a year or two ago but never managed it since then i have done a steel boat. The shell was a new one but i mean i did everything else on it im now interested in doing something else .Are there any l&l short boats left out there in wood, or im i dreaming

i havent fitted my gas as yet i have a kettle 600 w boiled tea all the way from selby to rodley sometimes with engine running sometimes not any extra water left straight in a thermos flask then when next cup needed back in kettle top up with cold switch on boiled quickly ,I was once told, could be urban myth but it has stood up to my scrutiny that it takes more energy to get the water up above a certain temperature then once there boils quite quickly

I thought it was quite to but it was great with the weather being like it is you would have thought people would take advantage of it apparantley someone was saying that after monday you have to give 72 hour notice to go through the staircase locks like 5 rise and so on but dont take my word for it cos im on a learning curve like the north face of the eiger

hi if the place is still there could you poss give me phone numbers or names of nearest decent B&B

Saltaire is nice and if you moor up and go across into roberts park there is a nice cafe also i dont know if its still there but there is the ice cream boat the kids will like roberts park ,Dont know if they like kfc or not but its only a short walk up the road towards bingley just on the roundabout theres also some nice little shops and bistros there to and if you need one a launderette cheers owen

nice to meet you both to eventually got back this morning at 11,30 due to kirkstall lock being shut at 3 and then bw not opening the flipping thing until 8.55 thought they would open them at sunrise anyhoo other than that the journey was great the boat performed fantastic not a murmer or a hiccup absolutley fantastic if i wasnt bitten by boating bug before it really got its teeth stuck in this weekend hope your journey goes as well when youve picked your son up from selby all the best owen yes that was me im sorry didnt stop to chat but im sure we will meet up somewhere along the way all the best

hi do you know if there is a course near yrkshire west yorkshire that is cheers owen

sounds iydilic having said that if the sun shines and the kids get to let off some steam and the dog sleeps .Talk about all the planets having to align. then you could be on

where are you setting off from

hi could you tell me which way the boat is listing as in which part is lowest in the water cheers
