Does she know how to clean and cook fish, and does she have a boat and a motor?

If so, I would need to see the boat and motor before making a final decision.

Mrs Racer 2.0 does not hang out on this forum much does she?

Oh, and a special mention for our Weber BBQ expert member, Bob!

A friend of mine has an old Weber kettle that's worse for wear. We were having about 30-odd people around to our house for a BBQ last night so I borrowed my friend's one to use along with my one. His needed a good clean before we started. Turns out he got it from another mate who had used it as a potplant holder which explains why the vent system in the bottom is completely rusted out. I've made new handles for it too, as those were gone.

Anyway, had no time to take photos last night as I was grilling for 36 but it worked perfectly well.

That reminds me of a bit of a Rupert story.

When I was in the Army, I worked for a while in the Regimental Police. That got me the job to be the RSM's aide. (Regimental Sergeant Major) Our military base was actually three bases right next to each other, each with their own command structure, all falling under Western Cape Command.
One day I was sent on a clandestine mission: I had to plant seeds in the other camp's HQ garden beds so that, when there was an upcoming inspection by the Brigadier, they would get in the you know what for having "weeds" in their gardens.
I can report that I completed the mission perfectly!

She does have an anchor, does that account?

She has an account, and has posted a few times, but no, she isn't a regular.

You should have seen the salt-pile in the Baltimore docks last week, was driving so no pic. It was the size of four 10 story buildings side by side.

Salty snow piles make me laugh since they end up with giant piles near the ocean in places like Boston but they aren't allowed to put the salty snow into the ocean and just have to wait for it to melt.

This was the biggest mountain of "salt to be spread' that I have ever seen.

You can, but for some reason it'll get you in jail.
