July is coming to an end and you have likely been subjected to some record breaking temperatures? I occasionally wonder if it is the effects of global warming? One thing that you may have surely noticed recently, the temperatures are much more agreeable in the early morning or at night.
In this months edition we'll look at an amazing houseboat rebuild project, and also a solution on how to take your friends and family out for some incredible midnight boat rides.
