Re: Bute / Coniston Back to Back

I don’t believe Gina is being controlled by anyone. Gina has changed her mind which she is entitled to do, won’t be the first time, won’t be the last, like anyone else I suppose, it is a gift of living in the free world !! I did not personally agree with the platform she chose to swing the proverbia...

Re: Bute / Coniston Back to Back

I believe it’s a “submit your questions in advance” type gig so none desirable questions can be filtered out. Good for them ! If it raises the museums profile and gets Donald out there it can only be a good thing ! They are on a roll, first the badges and now a phone in. One would think the museum w...

Re: Bute / Coniston Back to Back

I agree with Malcolm that Coniston is K7’s “spiritual home” and I would like to see her active on that body of water, and on display at the Ruskin too ! Problem is I would likely need a hazmat suit and visor to protect me against all the phlegm and spit that would be forthcoming if I stepped into th...

Re: Bute / Coniston Back to Back

As per above, paperwork is being served there will not be a blow by blow update until the process is completed or at least been to court for the first hearing (not from me in any event, and I will politely shove Bill really hard in the back of the neck until he does the same :lol: ). It’s in the lap...

Re: 54 Years Ago - On This Day...

A tragic day and the loss of two British Icons in the blink of an eye. Maybe one day this mess will be resolved and K7 can go on display in the Museum whilst continuing to be the living breathing machine she is.

Re: Coniston Bye laws/Ruskin

Great work Malcolm to you and all those behind the scenes that made it happen in the first place. Coniston should be pleased now that records week can return bringing with it revenue and friendly faces no doubt.
