Sorry wasn't able to get to the lake for the Warship Do, hopefully someone will send in a few pictures of the event and how we did on the Help 4 Heroes, side of the day. 

On the continuation of the duck saga as reported in the last couple of posts, the landing stage has been completely free of duck poo since the new edging and string duck deterrent system was put in place, though on Saturday when I went to the lake I met Eric Smith and we saw that there were a few ducks sat sunning themselves and Eric pointed out to me that they were Limbo dancing under the entrance gate and also under the string near to the boat box where it is a bit shallower  !.

Still clean though

Limboing under the string.

So the system is working for keeping the geese out, but needs a bit more tweaking for the ducks, possibly a bit of an extension on the gates and a few more strings (Net) on the rescue boat end hey.

Well its nice to go on the landing stage and not have to get out the ladle and brushes every time, 

Here is a picture of that Bloke who keeps coming to the landing stage with a camera and a small yapping dog, sailed today on the nice clean landing and after the clouds cleared away had a nice quiet lonely sail!.

So you see, I do have boats and have to add my own here when there's no one else there!.

That's it of now, see you at the lake!.
