So how does that happen Gene ?????
I take a picture [obviously the right way up] i dont take them stood on my head. I do the usual process of selection from the library and use . I have never once used the upside down button !!!!!
Patio seats are protected in a winter waterproof cover ——only place in the garden to place it—— sun came out—what can i tell you . Sometimes you eat bear !!!!!!!!!Quote:

three whole hours to myself —- workshop still nice and tidy and a couple of clear worktops should make for some good progress today. Turns out i have FOUR concepts on the go at this moment in time , can i really be that stupid —- like to think of it as ambition.
one of todays jobs is to fernagle four or five outboards on to a transom—- this will probably be a tunnel boat —- Vee bottom have hardly room for a matched pair let alone five .
have three T tops to do but only two centre consoles to put them it. Was experimenting and had a couple of good tries that never quite made the grade —- seems a shame to chuck em under the bench just yet .
Keeping pulling up the hardtop i made for Rich LUHRS rolls Roycten years ago - just not bad enough to bin. Attachment 504072 There it is —see what i mean —not quite right —but too good to bin —so it lives under the bench.
Man but that motor has some GRUNT.Quote:

Berth of a boat concept. Could be a Vee bottom or a tunnel hull .
Beauty of doing a concept this way means i do get each sponson exactly right—- must emphasise this is not the method used by boat builders today— only by me as a concept fernagler .

Just how bloody stupid is that——start of the day i had a couple of clear benches —-thought i would show what the same area was like at the end of day —— sodding pictures came out upside down [again] .

Ah well, two outa three ‚s not bad these days i suppose .
Did not realise we had been invited out for Sunday lunch by Bjorn and Allison . Meant a trip down to Lee-on Solent—-coastal town that was only a naval fleet air arm base other side of Portsmouth.
now been sold off to property developers and now has thousands of new homes there . It’s like a bloody rabbit warren . Must be the tenth time I’ve been there , i still managed to get lost.
Bjorn Christian is a bike freak — runs an automatic HONDA 750 for everyday purposes — but he always had the odd MOTO GUZZI in the garage —- this particular one is a 1984 650sp with 22,000 miles on the clock.
He reckons its much easier to ride than the Honda and is much lighter . Even i can straddle it and still keep both feet on the ground .
Had a wonderful lunch but it did take five hours out of the day . Total shop time was only five hours today. Still managed to get a whole load of basic ground works done on the four new concepts.
have all next week and a bank holiday to get cooking with gas . But you know the old adage THE BEST LAID PLANS OF———.
I think Fred’s 720S has even more GRUNTQuote:

A young British driver named George Russell was looking in his rear view mirrors, and saw a past champion, his teammate. Will the British limelight be directing its hopeful gaze towards the younger teammate.
I assume time will reveal, if its going to be a changing of the guard.
