Wow times two. The corracle looks like a good gift now. I shall have to check out the course. Not sure he'd want to go away for a couple of days when he could be home with the Smalleys.

That course actually sounds quite brilliant. Not sure I'll ever be able to get there, but I'd love to own a coracle.

There's actually loads of courses like that if you google for them. And one bloke does a course or flogs you a set of plans for £5.

There might be one closer to you, or more convenient dates.

Or, get a barn cleared and invite a course-giver to put on a course in your barn, where people then take their coracle out on the cake. And in exchange for that space, you get to make one for free.

Go camping at LIR's, clutching a copy of the £5 plans ... and the three of you can make a coracle together.

I would LOVE to have courses like that happening here. We had a course here last year for a friend, it went ok, we didn't charge her for the space, but she felt the profit wasn't enough to justify it. Its a shame, it was great fun. We have loads of parking, and when the house is done could tout b and b or camping too for us to make something. I wonder how much insurance for that sort of thing would cast, and how you go about getting course makers interested in your venue....i would do it fo
R free if we could get b and b takings and or do the course for loads of things.

Yes! Whats worse is the cool aid i used to glug too. I believe there is an anti kool aid movement in us. I used to love the powder left it the little containers...undiluted e numbers. Maybe thats why i used to run around so much? Maybe i need some e numbers back in my diet?

I ate Fruit Loops in America last week. They were vile! Even the sliced bread we bought for toast tasted as though it had a ton of sugar in it. Isn't "they've been drinking the Kool Aid" a political insult these days?

Back home and I've bought a packet of Merchant Gourmand slow roasted tomatoes for chomping as a snack. Yummmmmmmmmmmm...
