Have you seen the duct tape episode yet?

Dont think I have, the episode I saw today, was one where they swim in water, then syrup. I am not even sure what series we are on.

You'll like the duct tape episode when you see it. Among other things,they make a duct tape sailboat with a duct tape sail and sail it in San Francisco Bay. They also make a duct tape cannon that fires real cannon balls.

Just checked on the Sky Guide, that they have an episode called Duct Tape Hour on next Sunday, I think I know what I'll be watching .

Watching a Saudi Arabian airliner, on the 'PlaneFinder' app, fly right over the Olympic park exclusion zone. Which I thought had come into force?

Scifan's description sounds unmissable. But we don't have Sky :-(
On the other hand, my sister does. Could she record it & send to us somehow?
Does Sky have a watch-again app?

Dont think Sky, does sorry. Does your sister have Sky+/Sky+HD, if so, then she could record it for you (while she can watch something else)? Sky has a Sky Go app, but you need to have Sky, to use it (I think, not sure about that one sorry).

That sounds exciting! Looking out for the boat that's shaped like a cornflake
And the map says it all. Roughly how long does the 204 NM take to complete?

That's a shame. But I will try & get her to record it for when we visit. Not very hopeful though. She has just moved house this week so everything's in boxes. She can't find her clean knickers, let alone all the TV gubbins.

And I don't know what Sky package she's got. She probably has no idea either...

Hey Stranding...I know...we get joked around with cereal name all the time. The previous owners called it that... It is bad luck to change names on a boat...and well it is "Special! "

I am not sure how long it will take, since they have not done a Shore Course in such a long time. The start time was Saturday at 1 PM...so I am hoping that their finish will be early Monday. They are 95 NM away from the Finish with good winds right now.

They ususally do the Cove Island Course...much longer...and takes about another 12 hours. Never see them come in until Monday night...or Early Tuesday morning.

They are currently in 4th place...out of a fleet of 12 boats!!
