Hi Grasshopper the cheapest time to cruise is the week before Christmas, you could take a long time coming back.

Am I the only one who likes Christmas?

We have toys for Christmas - I'm having a bunch of Airfix models, the wife's having Lego. We go and feed the ducks in the morning, have a great Christmas dinner, watch the crap telly while playing with our toys and enjoying the various chocolates and drinks.

If you're not enjoying it, you're doing it wrong.

Completely agree, it's what you make of it. 


Just me, the wife and the dogs, lots of silly presents that we take all day to unwrap, spoil the dogs, eat too much and cuddle up in front of the log burner watching brain dead TV all evening.  This year we are going to indulge in the "lost" Morecambe and Wise episodes.  What's not to like?

The big day is almost here lots of food a few beers lots of telly and hopefully some surprises. It is very cold frosty and foggy in the north so Santa may get lost for a short while.

Someone to put spare gears and shafts for the Jackson outboard motor back into production, but I suspect my wishes won't be granted..............

In the meanwhile I'll be figuring out ways to convert some of my models to LiPo batteries without setting fire to them.
