George Buys a sail-boat

---

well ALMOST a sailing boat!!! WE needed to get onto the pond and to the little island to clear away the weeds and debris. Thought about a bridge, but saw this boat on Trade-me so here it is . (all $80 worth!)
Watch this space for the launching ceremony - Jason and Anita want to be there and have a boat trip. They will have to bring a paddle, as there are no rowlocks or oars

Boat Launching
Sounds fun ...just to let you know that, as a person of recent fame in a Whangarei publication, I am willing to lend my services as the naming-of-the-boat, swinging-of-the-champers-bottle celebrity. This will, of course, depend on the date as my diary will no doubt be filling up rapidly (ha ha ha!!) Tineke :)
