Three abandoned boats.......

I recently learnt that some of the wrecks (cough,  projects) that you see on moorings or jetties are actually the ones that pay their mooring fees first.  




Taken with a lighty used Mini 3 Pro.

Nice top down of this trio of abandoned boats DA.  

Interesting to know that some of the wrecks are the ones that pay their mooring fees first.  Seems a bit odd that they have the  money to pay mooring fees but to not repair their boat.  

I guess they fear that they'd be thrown out quickly if they didn't.

I know its beggars belief as we say here.

It's never dark there,  its in a flood lit area.   Id have to do a James Bond and scuba in.

I'd wait until it's a bit warmer to try that - or send DowntownRDB in. He's a keen diver.

I think DT could do it,  he's got the right suits for the job.

Then he's hired!

I hope he doesn't want his travel covered.

It'll take him a few weeks to sail across

DAFlys Posted at 2-6 01:01
thanks Peter.

My pleasure.
Catching up from another break.
We are planning a big renovation for after this summer.
Lots of lists to make.

Can you imagine the fuel bill for that.

Does that mean the bathroom is now finished?

Well for sure it's a bit further than Cancun, where he was going to go before his accident.

DAFlys Posted at 2-6 01:46

Yup.
Doing the downstairs toilet now.
We have come a long way already.
Some painting, chalking and then I'll have the plumber here to mount the toilet itself.

chalking?   Is that caulking or maybe plastering?

DAFlys Posted at 2-6 01:58

caulking indeed.
The spelling checker improved my bad spelling but did not know what I was writing about.
(and I did not check).
Some seams have to be done before the toilet can be mounted. Otherwise they are hard to reach.

hahaha.   Got to love auto correct.  

DAFlys Posted at 2-6 02:30

Indeed.
I have something in between (spelling correction) that just shows my bad spelling and leaves it up to me to fix it (but it does suggest words, so there is where I got lazy)

I wasn't familiar with that British idiom but I looked it up in the idioms dictionary.  

Going to be a good day as I already learned something new.

Haha.  I thought that would be lost on you.     -1c here this morning but its full sun and slowly getting a but above freezing.

Google Chrome.

  No problem.  I treated it as a learning lesson.

Glad to hear it is "warming" up a bit. We are only at 27C but they predicted 31C.  

DAFlys Posted at 2-6 05:08
Thanks RO.

Doesn't that just do normal auto correct?

This morning was supposed to be full sun and -2c,   left extra early as I had a good feeling about sunrise,  even skipped my morning coffee.    It was thick fog out there.

I don't know. With me it gives this red line. And that is how I like it.

We also had a frosty night, but no fog.

There was no forecast for it,   but as I was walking it just got thicker and thicker.    But I may have got a couple of nice shots.
