Sorry, Paul – yet another feeble attempt at humour on my part fails miserably. I know I promised not to, but I get these urges now and then…….

Luckily, the radar mast is hinged at the base. It would be no use letting the tyres down anyway, the problem is at the top.

Thanks, Malc. Straight to the nub of the problem, as usual.

I was just waiting for some genius to tell us all that the transporter has tracks and not tyres…………………….

The bloke at the front needs to watch his noggin too.

I was in Whistable a while back and saw their lifeboat out and about. also saw her came back in.

She may only be a inshore RIB but she really can shift.

Sorry to highjack your thread Bob.
