Tomorrow... the Punt cometh... I'd like to be thanking all that aided me in the birth of this potential maritime legend, or disaster....deepblack, mcminns mob, fullonchaos, flicken4em, my neighbour Clive who pilfered me the launch wheels, Jimmy from AKS welding, the guys at Promoter trailers, my good friend Michael "scratch" Scraturchio, and of course Tangels. Without any of you, I'd still be humbugging all for rides in their boat. But I still might.. ha ha. Wish Mr Tangels and I luck on the morrow, we be rolling the dice..... but we feeling lucky. ;)
