Ooops! brain stopped
« on: May 10, 2008, 06:18:33 pm »

Dont know if its my age  or the fumes from the giber glass resin ,this morning i connectedthe charger to my tug for a days sailing .
Four hours later getting it ready for the trip to the pond ,un plugged the gharger from the boat only to find that i had not switched it on at the wall  :embarrassed:.
The thing is the two 12v 12ah bat's have not been charged for at least two months and after this afternoon they realy need a good charge.
"note to ones self switch charger on at mains ".

Now you just need the T shirt  O0

Couple of weeks ago I charged the battery, even took it to the lake. So far so good. Went to the back of the car... no boat  >>:-(

I had a yacht but there was no wind to speak of (not that I could use for sailing anyway)  ::)

Towed a vehicle to scrap yesterday connected the trailer board to the dolly and off we went, got to the destination and I hadn't plugged the dolly into the Range Rover, so yes we all have days like that.  ;)

All the best Andy.  O0
