"Dreams of Glory" in which poor Reggie Mustard, always a steady "middle of the fleet man" partixcipates a little liberrally at the pre-race dinner.

Imagine the boat speeding to the line, the spinnaker pulling so hard that you canot move forward without risking a nose dive. How is the beast to be tamed??

Haven't you got it? (I suggest a hint to the birthday fairy.)

I'm sure you'll have fixed it by now but I've often had this problem with tubeless trailer and motorbike tyres. Even with a garage airline it can be difficult to get the bead to seal but I've nealry always been able to do it by gently pressing down on the top of the tyre (after a bit of trial and error) to stop the air rushing out. A tyre fitter's airline gives out a lot more air so they are always succesful and rarely charge.

Hi Ed
Off topic I know. I've used absolute alcohol in the pass to wash film, evapourates in about 15 seconds giving good results but not archival. Tried the meths thing burnt fingers, results inconclusive as dropped film as a result of this. It's very dirty now so will have to wash in rise aid anyway.

ps The alcohol hardens the emulsion.
