AHOY THERE MRS H, Everything is shipshape stopped using the bucket as Its easier to go over the side (except when it's a southeaster) D Dock is looking beautiful, especially in the morn with the sun shimmering on the water, tugs going about their business, Cormorants diving for fish, HMS Norfolk lying alongside with her bow facing towards the Thames, The Dome in the backround completes the scene. (further down river is the barrier which looks like mini Sydney opera houses) South Dock where I am moored is just as scenic, across the river from Discovery Dock the View is something else with Canary Wharf all lit up at night(I was the electician who put the white band of light around the top of number 1 Canada square, otherwise known as the pointy thing). Nearly broke my back on friday, got of the boat toothbrush in hand and slipped on a frozen puddle on the pontoon,must remember to pee over the portside ! coots keep waking me up at first light, they do like pizza though.. do coots taste nice ? I had my rod out the other night and got a nibble]:)My friend John McVicar wants to write a book about ye olde thames (he wrote about the Dando case)Its to be called 'A Watermans tale' about all the skulldugery on the Thames past and present so if anyone has got any TRUE stories pass them over (my email is davidgregg@onetel.net) Changing the subject slightly, I have a load of (access to) japenese motorbikes and I need somebody to do the legwork as Im too busy (working wenching drinking boating daydreaming etc) How do I put a pic up ? I can do it on FRD so help me somebody please.. Off to Brom next tuesday to visit a foundry and look at the development of my project (more info on www.dosomethingamazing.com ) 😉 Agents Wanted.
