Maybe. I was thinking more yacht-type docks, but industrial docks work too. Ah, the english language at work again - we call the yacht ones marinas! They call them marina's here too  BTW...what is a "crumpet"? Sorry to keep bugging you about the British stuff ...but a co worker keeps asking and no one seems to know  |

Ah, the english language at work again - we call the yacht ones marinas! Oh, we do, too. I just didn't think of it. Ah well. Cool. Doesn't matter either way, does it? - it just gives us more scope! We can be industrial or more refined depending on how we feel!! |

Sorry to keep bugging you about the British stuff ...but a co worker keeps asking and no one seems to know No problem, Polar - you're not bugging me at all! A crumpet is actually quite hard to describe. They're almost like a bread but they have lots of small holes in them. We toast them and cover them with butter ('cos we're healthy like that over here!) and they're scrummy! I'll see if I can find a photo of one and PM it you! |

Yeah, it's a bit like a muffin, but muffins are sweeter. Crumpets don't really taste of anything at all, it's just the texture that's nice and the best bit is when you suck the butter out of the holes and make a mess! |
