That'll be the carpets a tad wet then?
The washer bottle and the radiator will be topped up as well.

So where is this?
It looks like some of the hillside has decided to come down onto the slip. One of the probs when you have the amount of rainfall we have been getting recently.

That's some adventure, certainly makes you think about slips. Think a tow bar extension or very heavy rope should be carried when going to unknown slips for the first time!

Well spotted Salar - apart from laughing all day I will be more observant when using a slipway in future!
