Dinghy

I am growing rather fond of my dinghy as it follows me around the cut sitting faithfully by the side of my boat. I think the leaves suit it.



I now have some plans for some oars, and as I have a new boat pole arriving today, I am planning to make some oars out of the old boat pole and some pieces of ply I have. Should be fun - and with any luck I might get them done in time for Weeping Cross' visit tomorrow evening, and take him for a short trip on Sunday (mainly around in cicles if my previous rowing experience is anything to go by - but in my defense that was in flood water).

    am wondering if flood water is more likely to have one go in circles than ordinary water?

    Why not paint the oars bright orange, then you will look look a duck paddling along!
