My grandmother,s name was Ellen but she preferred to be called Nellie

I am all of a quiver with anticipation, Ive not been washed in weeks so I,ll go second and give it a proper test after you prove its safe. If anyone has an attack of the vapours some smelling salts may also come in useful along with some Parkinsons blood and stomach pills, I think Ihave a bottle that my grandfather left behind when he shuffled of in 1976

I can relay a story if you,d rather.....

For what its worth I think folk will vote for the candidate they know. Its a difficult one to make a choice for otherwise. I am unable to vote but would vote "Fincher" I think as Alan is associated with this the largest forum he should stand a great chance. Ive seen a.n.other posting during the campain but havnt looked as I,d never seen the name previously so saw it as blatent oppurtunism appealing at the last minute to the biggest boating audience but not taking part in forum lfe at other times. I may have that wrong but thats my perception. I havnt met either Alan or Cath but find them balanced in their forum contributions and enthusiasm, therefore I cant see a better candidate from where I stand.

You sound a bit like me, and while I dont wish to blow my trumpet, what you do and take for granted, ie form a relationship with your heater and know it inside out, most folks struggle with this type of approach and as a result condem the heater. They are a "highly strung bit of kit and any weakness in the chain and they dont work, its a "nouse" thing more feel than textbook

This is the one I bought http://www.canalworld.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=28995 Please see my reply to Starcoaster for link, Ive checked it and the link worked for me :cheers:

More like everyone else took one step backwards

I,ll check it out and get back to you

I,d love to take you up on that! Your names on the wishlist A woman of immense taste, [Dont tell Mike I said that]

I dread to think what you get up to behind closed doors

Its no secret I would like to circumnavigate the UK and this would fit my requirements http://yachts.apolloduck.co.uk/feature.phtml?id=238412

Would a Knighthood double as a bath cap when in jacuzzi mode

I thought we had covered footspas in the other thread

I believe theres an endless choice of colours too

Twas on the tip of my tongnue to mention a guinea pig, although I didnt consider myself worthy of such gallantry, If considered a likely candidate modesty would be cast aside for the sake of others

I was thinking more in terms of a plastic 5 ltr oil can with the side cut out. The screw cap end being utilised as an overflow, and the handle making it truly portable

We may be onto a marketable product collective development of which may lead to future affluence when things start to pick up

Are you "in" product development by any chance? I can see the virtue of leaving the prop and having ones own tailored sack with holes specifically tailored to individual toe arrangments with the possibility of extra holes for other extremeties. Sadly I suspect my toenails would pose an impossible challenge for all but the most abrasive of prop materials. The olympic goggles and wristwatch would be advanntageous in "shower mode"

I hadnt given much thought to the H&S ramifications, perhaps a rubber prop may be a wise precaution along with a carefully positioned umbrella for a shower effect utilising any water thrown skywards by overenthusiasm in the operation of the throttle when in jacuzzi mode.[shower cap optional]

Another alternative is to lower a large sack down the weedhatch taping the top to the rim of the weedhatch or by using some ballast borrowed from the bilge to hold the rim of the sack at deck level. a few small holes in the sack will allow water to enter from the canal but prevent small fish and detritous from sharing your bath. For the jacuzzi effect preferred by some a few revs on the prop will allow the water to percolate through said holes to create the expensive ambience of a hot tub
