Re: Fingers crossed for Old Herbaceous I'm afraid you are wrong Peter, it's hogwash.

Re: Fingers crossed for Old Herbaceous Or he'll probably be found sailing his dinghy off the coast somewhere trying to pretend he's part of the GB Sailing Team.

Re: Fingers crossed for Old Herbaceous OH thought long and hard over his choice of dinghy. It had to be useful all year round, so on arrival at the beach he will have emptied the wheelbarrow, fitted the rudder between the handles, a cross strut in the middle to hold the wolf exchangable hoe handle mast, rigged the compost bin cover plastic sail and launched with a quick trundle through the surf. The rear rests double up as bargeboards / twin keels by bolting two plywood skins, on each side of each rest, while the wheel trebles up as, front keel, flotation aid and mooring bumper. Of course despite using his largest barrow it is still best described as a "snug little craft". This year with the poor soft fruit OH did allude to a potential alternative holiday use for his fruit nets, though I did warn him he might be boarded by the Navy Fisheries Protection Patrol to check his undoubtedly undersized net mesh.

Re: Fingers crossed for Old Herbaceous Good to see you back Old H.
Judging by the quiet on the forum it seems most others are on holiday.
