Ozmandius

Hello dear people,
I will post just a couple of lines to introduce myself. I am long in the tooth and
bowed in the leg ,The head gets shinier and I have swapped the comb for a flannel. But although I get slower I am determined to get that boat in the water next year (an Elizabethan 29 yawl up on sticks in Faversham Kent).
