I've seen some strange stuff carried on board a boat but today was the strangest...a brand new ironing board, still in the wrapper..
Look out for some very smart boatie folk in Argyll.

Corby trouser press can be very useful on the west coast.

Re: The strangest thing
Just how are you expected to hone the creases in your pink trousers without an ironing board and iron? Which reminds me - my barathea reefer jacket has cultured an interesting mould growth over the winter months. Any tips on returning it to its previous sartorial spleandour?

Wear it whilst swimming in the sea. Salt is a well known preservative. It could acquire the appearance of a fine Parma Ham. Mind, it could also look like a salt Cod instead.marisca wrote:Just how are you expected to hone the creases in your pink trousers without an ironing board and iron?

Tow it behind the boat for a few hours - then ask the ironing board boat for a loan?marisca wrote:Just how are you expected to hone the creases in your pink trousers without an ironing board and iron?
