We did notice 
Me mate straitman launched his newly aquired Osprey at Dinorwic today
But managed to float in an step off before the sh+t hit the skeg!
Top tip for PD
Check them stone baskets as yer poke yer nose in
Yer dead safe if them stone baskets on yer port side as yer enters are showing a minimum of 4.5 'ledges' an yer laundry bill will be minimised
