Hi, Your comments are always most welcome
Earthquakes and Squirells always go together.
There was an Earthquake in Birmingham this week as well as the one on the news far far away.
Have you been eating chocolate or wearing anything purple?
Well I reckon you made the right choice sue on boat because as you say even though it would have been nice to have the extra length it would restrict you in the long run as too where you could go. Am looking at the webb site now as to how you go about hiring Pussers Rum. You could teach me the ropes sue lmao. A busy day ahead for me with more death and distruction in the front garden. Changeing it to a rock and gravel with decking garden. Lots of palms, cactus, grasses etc. Low maintenance too.

as squirrels are just rats with good PR I am not surprised it could swim....
I reckonit makes a habbit of jumping on unsuspecting boats... did you look up into the branches and see all it's chums giggling? I wouldn't put it past them you know.
Hey jamas, you got a special breed of cactus that is bunny resistant? 
or salt resistant for that matter.
Furbs..
Yes I have been eating chocolate.. buttons from granny buttons! And yes I have been wearing my purple jumper..
Errrrr why shouldn't I eat that or wear that?
James,
I have seen that narrowboat, and spoken to the crew that was onboard at the time.. go for it, I am sure you would enjoy, anyway, you didn't do tooo bad steering NP through a couple of locks on the Caen Hill flight did you?
Ha, so you are doing a garden that won't need your attention in the future.. buy hey, you sure you got the weather for cactus?? :P
Ron,
I don't know that these squirels have good PR in the Isle of Wight though.. red squirels there getting wiped out by them. I am surprised they can swim with that tail of theirs.. there you go, never too old to learn eh?
