Head down and arse up, i beavered away at a proper KARELSON concept all day .
yes of course i nailed it — only done the sponsons up to now , but they turned out right —rest will come .
Bit like the scriptures -MATHEW-MARK-LUKE AND JOHN. ACT OF THE APOSTLES FOLLOW ON !!!! Same thing in life .
Found an old window board . A chunk of Pirhana Pine —- hard as nails with no knots . Should paint up fine .
Done a deal with my grandson Gary Stray he‘s the guy that ran the GIECO offshore Raceteam.
He gets EDDIE RICKENBACKERS WW1 BI-PLANE —- i get ?????????
End of an era really with no more offshore MISS GIECO—- whole operation is being closed down and the boats sold —trucks and trailers —the whole shebang.
Gary and Lou are playing things pretty close to their chest at the moment — but i can tell you , they are still involved with big boats and even bigger horsepower !
Im still feeling a little cheated at the minute — still no open door for me to visit the USA— so the old farts and Havasu reunion are not on the cards —-anyway -i still have lots to do even with no places to go !!!!!!
Has the UK started recommending 3rd jab yet?Quote:

Ron messaged me, they were hacked a while back and lost a lot of data or he deleted stuff with no updates for 5 years so it may be gone.
Bobby Vee sent me some excellent pictures TT— done the groundwork -took a couple days —but when im eating bear and cooking with gas things have a tendency to HAPPEN.Attachment 493521Attachment 493522Quote:

Keep throwing another coat of red , every now and again —- now as 10 coats on it . Has to look somewhere near it afore long —-didnt get much done this morning , spent a long time and all my money at the car boot and scrapyard . How the hell i managed to spend £500 on a Saturday morning remains a complete mystery to me .
Damned bear bit a huge chunk out of my arse this morning !!!!!!!!
Gave up on this one —-if it had been a Merc, i might have persevered —but a rude -Nah. Lost a tenner on that one . Could not even unload it at a loss.Quote:
