XML Feedsthreatening to look bit boaty again

Despite being laid low with swine flu (yup I've got it and am pig sick of it!) managed a few days this week, creating more sawdust and wood shavings, but finally, the big stuff is virtually done on the decky front. Beams are cut, last one just needs leveling and then can be fastened in to place, the knees are almost all sorted, and even the knackered knee is on the mend
might even be a threat of all the crap and debris coming finally to an end, over 100 bags of bits of wood removed, just a few more to go, although there's probably as much chance of the old girl being rubbish free as there is of Baron Mandy admitting he knows where Gordon and Tone buried all the bodies!
Externally, there's nearly no paint left on the hull, and therfore the risk of No2 setting fire to himself and/or the boat is diminishing also
another full days graft and I can get laurence llewellyn bowen to flounce down the pontoon and do the big reveal as the tarps come off, mind you, they'd sharp have to go back on as I'm buggering off for some R&R next weekend, and doubt the deck will get laid before I go, but hey ho, little by little, the beam/knee mission will be finished.... and I never mentioned knee tremblers once
