It's true - 6.5 years ago I built a large structure for my/our boat, we covered it with a heavy duty tarpaulin, and that's where the boat lived, sat on its trailer. Now the boat is sold we've just got firewood in there.

That is very pretty, it looks as if there is a great deal to do to get it from rock to gem!! How easily does the rock give up itβs treasures?

It's a fairly soft rock (softer than granite?) and if you look closely it's full of micro-fractures. Anyway, them thar 58kg are yours if you care to wait until June 2019 when we should be driving over - 16 boxes of books to carry to my sister's in Deepest Darkest Worcestershire.

well my little pastime has been getting better. we have done a few more ROC posts. a few have been in very food condition with paperwork and tools in.
we have done a former coast guard training centre which was great a old club which used to be a bank of England gold vault. it had a two storey basement with huge vaults on both levels.
but recently and why I wanted a quick chat with boatman, Nigel is it.
we explored what used to be twr arrows, super aguri and most recent caterham F1 teams factory. with the places we are exploring and I must say some good photos coming along. the pair of us have become quite well known in the exploring community and are getting many offers of joining up for explores.
it's been quite fun.
been caught a few times now and not long ago the police flew in 5 seconds after we left a property and actually ran past us.
wearing black with torches and cameras and generally did not think we were the alleged suspected burglars.
