Fair play.

And the other fifty percent by you.

Everybody knows the Earth is flat innitt. You will tell me we put a man on the moon in 1969 next.

Thanks for confirming everything in my post. You obviously didnt read it !!. I said dont take supplements unless on the advice of your doctors. Keep up at the back.

I sold that boat nearly twenty years ago so Its better at stopping corrosion than paint with all the masses of preperation needed for the paint to adhere. It was also only a days job to do the complete shell. Admitted twas a bare shell as I bought it that way to fit out.

If you read my post originaly you would see I said if you are medicaly ok and eat a balanced diet you will not need ANY supplements, what do you find hard to understand. I will explain again. Eat a proper balanced non gimmick diet and have no health proiblems then you need no supplements. If you still fail to understand come back again and i will further try to explain

Yes. Proper diet and its not needed. I dont need to read it. I dont need any supplements, my NHS dietician says I dont.

I have now spent over 4 weeks in a poxy house due to this virus, its dreadful. I normaly live on my boat and have done for many years. I will suffer here for a further 3 weeks but if it goes on longer I am travelling back to my home. Being classed as Homeless by the government anyway when I registered to vote some of the lockdown doesnt apply.

Vitamin D however is in many foods. Basic foods such as eggs and fish have vitamin D. My dietician has told me to take no supplements as I have a varied diet covering a comprehensive range of foods. When she first spoke to me and asked me what I ate I apologised after telling her I often ate a full English breakfast or bacon and egg sandwich and she said it was fine. I also eat a lot of veg, mainly with dinner each night. some fruit and some fish. Pottasium is what I have a problem with so I have to watch how much of that I eat and how I prepare some foods, ie boiling spuds rather than steaming them to remove much of the pottasium.

Yes, I know Trump is a nutter but having a go at him at present doesnt hold water. the US are doing far better than we are. Stating they have the biggest number of deaths is bunkum when the figures are looked at.

Trump keeps being slated in the media but at present they are doing much better than most of us this side of the pond so it remains to be seen how it pans out? At present they have 30k deaths out of 330 million, a damn site better than many of the countries in Europe and we are doing.

You are right, blokes are pretty crap at looking after ourselves. I think much of it is we are lucky from day one in that nothing much realy changes for us over the years, unlike women who have all the women type stuff to put up with for years, then the menopause which for many is bloody awful and of course the biggy of sprogg dropping. So all in all they become more accustomed than chaps at going to the quacks.

Pictures!!!

You are correct. I wouldn't take any supplement whatsoever without direct advice from my gp or specialist. A megga high calcium level was killing me and combined with nsaids has destroyed my kidneys, well not quite destroyed but I am at stage 4 with stage 5 being kidney failure. Two operations saved me and an NHS dietician has been assigned for me, she is awesome and rings me after my very often taken blood tests as does my nephrologist and previously the endocrinologist who did my first op. Supplements are a multi billion pound industry and more often than not a con. Do not take anything without proper advice. If the body is working correctly and you have a balanced non gimmick diet non of its needed.

On my new Hull I did the whole lot in waxoyl. Warm day and spray it on. Quicker by a mile and does a great job.

I have caught macherel and had it on a grill in less than 5 minutes. We used to catch hundreds over the side of the Gray funnel liners I was on. My best recolection though was taking Temeraire a 36 foot nicholson across from Guzz to St Peter port one sunny afternoon with 3 mates. We just threw a line over the arse end and pulled mackrel in every throw. Smacked em on the head and gutted and put on the little grill in less than 5 minutes. Fresh as a daisy and a great starter before plenty of beer in St Peter Port for the weekend.

This is a good point. One plus point of a sewer tube ( There arnt many ) is the ability to find moorings in more locations. Whilst I have on occasion on a needs must basis found myself in a marina, without exeption every other mooring on line have been vastly better. An online offside mooring with facilities and very few boats is the best if available. Boat shaped boats though do give a better interior space for living and of course when boating are far superior.

Im with you on smokes trout, I do like that very occasionaly. Proper lump of cod with batter and chips cant be beaten though.........................................its a close call with KFC though

My missus eats quite a bit of salmon, especialy ont barby. I have to say I find it orrible, I only eat proper white fish with batter on
