RMweb Premium jamie92208 Posted June 16, 2019 RMweb Premium Share Posted June 16, 2019 Morning all from the Charente. Up early but the sky is blue and we are promised 30 degree heat later this week. Much to do this week, the roofer is comng either Monday or Tuesday. Off to the market this morning then to a friends to take a delivery of things bought in the UK. Coffee and cake has been promised. I might even manage an hour in the shed this afternoon doing some muddling. Great to hear good news from Debs. Jamie 19 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post chrisf Posted June 16, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted June 16, 2019 Good morning one and all, and happy Fathers Day where applicable Yesterday was a good day for reflection. With no-one else around, my friend Vera and I sat on a bench in the memorial garden at the crematorium near the rosebush that commemorates the lives of my parents. So much has happened in the 12 months since I was last there - my first Pride and the not inconsiderable matter of my coming out to name but two things - and we wondered what my parents would have thought of it all. I will never know what, if anything, they knew or suspected about my sexuality but I’d like to think that they would have been supportive, however difficult it might have been for them to take it all in at first. That I never made my parents grandparents has been a source of guilt for many years and it came to the surface again yesterday. I give thanks that I was not alone when it did. There is plenty to do in the week ahead. Today I will cook myself a steak for lunch in the sure and certain knowledge that it will not be as good as one from the erstwhile fresh meat counter at my local Tesco. Tomorrow I have a prescription to collect, on Wednesday an Area Group meeting and on Thursday an LGBT+ Faith meeting at a local Methodist church. Although the minister is one of the nicest people one could meet I’m not at all sure that I will be in my comfort zone that evening. Oddly there is nothing written down for next weekend. Clearly I need to check that! Best wishes to all Chris 22 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium Barry O Posted June 16, 2019 RMweb Premium Share Posted June 16, 2019 Ey up! Sunny again this morning. Expected rain arrival time is between 12 and 3 today. Cards and small present received from Dr Eldest Herbert. Youngest Herbert went out with the cricket team last night and is yet to return. Have as good a day as you can.

RMweb Premium TheQ Posted June 16, 2019 RMweb Premium Share Posted June 16, 2019 Mooring Awl, Inner Temple Hare, 6 hours almost solid sleep, it was just getting to sleep in the first place was difficult, finding a comfortable position was the problem. I've taken Ben the Border Collie, for morning patrol, an absolutely clear sunny sky, but the grass is very dewy. So when I've finished this bacon butty and a Muggacoffee or two, I'll remove the covers of the boat and start working on the last reinforcements needed other than pads for below. I need to measure up for the plate at the top of the keel, the positions of 12 keel bolts need to be precisely worked out so I can make a template for the steel fabricators. The keel plate will have a long "tail" so It goes right across the hull join. SWMBOs Woolley Worstead, yesterday was very successful, the car park was fully filled. They did get a heavy shower of rain, but only of short duration. She's just getting ready for day 2... I suppose it's very like doing demos at a muddle railway show. Time for Muggacoffee 2 18 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
tigerburnie Posted June 16, 2019 Share Posted June 16, 2019 Morning one and all, sunshine just now but it is forecast wet later, hope all the Dads have a nice day, I have some English Whisky for later from my son and the afore mentioned meet up with my daughter and her family at mid day, then an afternoon for free. 12 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold 81C Posted June 16, 2019 RMweb Gold Share Posted June 16, 2019 Morning All Cloudy and dull here it's just started to rain, today I will be lunching with my youngest daughter for a fathers day treat I'll be doing the same next week with her older sister who has to work today. I keep looking at all this stuff laying around the man cave I must really get it packed up I think I will go through the old stuff and just toss it out if it is not useable and to start packing rolling stock and case it up into storage boxes ready to go it's a job I do not relish. I think I better get on. enjoy your day I'm wondering what tacky & smutty presents I will receive this year. Mr. Fyde 7 10 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold grandadbob Posted June 16, 2019 RMweb Gold Share Posted June 16, 2019 Good morning all, The sun made a brief appearance earlier but it has now clouded over and a selection of weather options are available today. Yesterday's party went well although the rain stopped us sitting in the garden. SiL Steve had the foresight to erect a gazebo over the BBQ so at least he didn't get wet whilst cooking. The Knee was exceedingly painful even though I had taken Tramadol and liquid painkillers but I soldiered on and by the time I got home and went to bed all was well with the world and I had a good night's sleep. Today we have a cab booked and are picking up Nicki en route to son Steve's where he is cooking a Father's Day lunch. Looking forward to that as he is a very good cook. There may will be some more drinking involved as well. Have a good one, Bob. 17 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
lightengine Posted June 16, 2019 Share Posted June 16, 2019 The sun returned to sunny Teignmouth yesterday and it's here already again today. Managed to watch 2 more episodes of Killing Eve last night, we are on episode 5 next. Apparently there will be a 3rd series, I am guessing she doesn't get killed in this series. The newly elected local council now orange, similar to a POTUS, has reneged on a previous pledge to donate £10k to the inaugural Teignmouth Airshow. Apparently the airshow will still go ahead. A bit of a sad decision by Teignbridge Council as I imagine Teignmouth will be full to the gunwhales that day. It is a green issue. They didn't want all that aerial pollution. Apparently your flights to the US, Cuba etc can still pass overhead. I don't imagine we will have a missile crisis based on the promenade. 3 16 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium PhilJ W Posted June 16, 2019 RMweb Premium Share Posted June 16, 2019 Morning all from Estuary-Land. A quick hello as I'm off to the swap meet at Raleigh shortly. The lad will be coming with us so I expect to be grilled on the layout progress which is rather behind at the moment. Thats it for now, be back later. 15 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold Tony_S Posted June 16, 2019 RMweb Gold Share Posted June 16, 2019 Morning all. Rather overcast. Looks as if it could rain soon. I don’t have much to do. I will probably be one of the billion people watching on television the India v Pakistan cricket match that has just started. Tony 12 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium BSW01 Posted June 16, 2019 RMweb Premium Share Posted June 16, 2019 Good afternoon everyone A bit late on parade, breakfast in bed and present and card opening followed my many phone calls and messages.

RMweb Premium TheQ Posted June 16, 2019 RMweb Premium Share Posted June 16, 2019 Afternoon Awl, Lying water in boat 1/2 a bucket full sponged out. Soggy Sawdust/ glassfibre bits / wood chippings removed, 3/4 bucket full. Hopefully the boat will dry a little quicker now. 5 pieces of ply cut and trial fitted. One of which is the basis of the control console. The console can only be 8 inches by the 23 inches width of the cockpit because I need to get my knees in. Now I have the size, a layout will have to be worked out for the jammers and cleats, although not all will be on the panel itself... Main halyard Main outhaul Main down haul Main topping lift Main kicking strap. Main sheet Jib halyard Jib in furler Jib out furler. Jib up haul. Jib sheet port Jib sheet starboard. It became apparent that I did too much yesterday , after 3 hours in the sun and humidity I had to have a break, with grey clouds around I put the cover on the boat and retired to the house. After a half hour eyelid assessment, I took Ben for his long walk, about 1/3 of the way round it started drizzling, so we turned for home, so he got 2/3 of his normal walk. The heavens opened shortly after we got home, although the sun has just come out. A toastie has been consumed and a can of cider during the typing of this. Time i think, to do some console sketches.. 16 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium PhilJ W Posted June 16, 2019 RMweb Premium Share Posted June 16, 2019 Afternoon all from Estuary-Land. Found a few booklets at the swap meet at a pound each and an old tower models plastic bus kit for a fiver so not too bad. Only took a few modelling tokens as I want to keep a few for Ipswich next week. The lad was glad he came with us as he acquired a set of Thunderbirds figures including a 'villain' though I can't remember his name. 12 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
