IMPROVEMENTS WITH FAINT PRAISE…

Along with a friend from up-country, Tim Hunt, we have put new decking down on two more pontoons.  We even had enough sun yesterday for T-shirts.  The anti slip strips are to follow once it stops raining!  There are a couple of cleats missing because we had to cut the bolts off.  These will be put back asap.  The old decking is being used to re-line the inside of the corrugated shed.  I proudly showed off my work to my daughter Nancy yesterday – I have lined the walls and ceiling with insulation panels and have started to put the old decking on top of that.  

All she said was:  “Wow Dad.  You’ve put everything in jam jars.”  Not quite what I was expecting!
