BLUEMOMENT

Get no answer over there; has anyone used this stuff?

Failing an answer, the winter fuel allowance(s), I'm assuming I'll get hersel's, will be spent on the yard handyman who did such a good job last year sanding the sandblasted hull.

The lack of response over here suggests to me that no-one has used the bally stuff.
A piece of advice Para, if I may?

It sounds that in buying a product emblazoned with '2000' you are going for a somewhat dated model - perhaps a sort of XP version?
To get up to Windows 8 in the world of boaty shiney stuff you need to be buying something that claims to be 'Nano'
Hope that helps.

Perhaps the Scottish air is cleaner than the Solent stuff?

I do notice a distinct lack of an oil refinery belching out filth and muck around Ardfern and also that oor watters are gin clear instead of the soupy sewerage that passes as sea water in the wonderful Solent - home of British yachting according to the yotty press at any rate.

Perhaps thats why our craft don't require much in the way of chemical cleaning?

Wully, without this turning into a pishing contest but the amount o' Irish excrement that just one of the Argyll salmon farms pollutes the sea is equivalent to Oban's lavatorial output?

I have no knowledge of Obans toilets or salmon farm pollutants but can state with certainty that the waters if Argyll are far clearer than the wonderful Browny green soup in the Solent.
As for a pishin contest I would warn you that as Mrs Wully is away visiting family I have been home alone with a rather large festive cairy-oot of various ales which have had a large dent made in them c 'est soir. Consequently I am currently in a very strong position ( albeit an uncomfortable one) should the need arrive for a competitive slash.

Para, ye big wuss - jist when ah thocht there wid be a festive punch up, ye falls asleep.....

Oh, no. I have in fact cooked the Christmas lunch for all of them today (they all spent Christmas Day at the in-laws) plus the dog. This requires greater energy levels than normal and one can't afford to waste it debating the respective cleanliness of bits of sea.

The menu was:
Smoked salmon blinis with sour cream, capons and salad leaves to start
Turkey with sprouts, roasties, red cabbage, bread sauce, cranberries, carrots, stuffing, and chipolatos
Too fekked for the pud, so microwaved a lidl job ....

There certainly clearer, I grant you, but healthier? Shellfish bans 2000, 2003 ? You're heading for the bind that Chile got into.

Drinking on your own is not desirable ...

What is the difference between a blini and a drop scone?

A blini has 5 letters whilst a drop scone has several more?

I claim the £5.

Next.

Shellfish bans caused by natural algae blooms in certain areas or what? I cannae remember that far back.

It's a terrible responsibility being admin on here. The temptation to edit threads just because I personally think they have deteriorated into inconsequential drivel is almost overwhelming sometimes.

Seasonable Greetings to all.
