Of course you can make an Oppie but now that you have given the game away I doubt anyone would buy it from you...

I have a friend who has a problem - well several actually - but the main one is the fact that he no longer has a boat.  But he has a good friend who has a boat and is unable to use it to race on many occasions since he has to baby sit whilst his wife gets to race her topper.

Would it be acceptable for my friend to demand the loan of his friends boat whilst he is unable to sail due to baby sitting duties?  Should he point out that whilst the boat may be his pride and joy he will get a sense of enormous well being for helping out a mate in desperate circumstances??

Dear Blobby,

It would be quite acceptable for your friend to loan his friend his boat whilst his wife is sailing and he, your friend has to look after his kids.  He would not need to mention about his boat being his pride and joy, his friend would already know that.

The sense of joy and well being your friend would get from such a kind gesture would certainly make it all worth while.  it would also give your friend a chance to see just how fast his boat could go.

I suggest you mention this to your friend as soon as possible.  It is a great idea.

Once irate parents find you, you will discover just how bad the splinters from economy plywood can be.  They take some getting out, but where you would get them I doubt anyone would be will to help with the removal.

Collect up millions of plastic milk bottle tops.  melt then down in a really bid saucepan (your mum should have one).  Pour the mixture into your bath, (remember to put the plug in first), and smear it up the edges.  Once set remove from mould and presto, one plastic oppie.

You could market it as Pete's plastic performance oppie.  Sell it on e-bay as suitable for beginners and family use, you will make a mint.
