Falmouth Quay Punt

Nice work Kev ! Always interesting to see how leftover building materials can be put to good use. I've got a bag of leftover tile grout as well 🙂. Strange word "flagstone", "flag" here is probably cognate with the Dutch word "plag" which means turf or a slab of peat.

 

Regards,

 there is only a small section of wharehouse 

Now there's an interesting concept!

Is it the h or the a that's incorrect?

Still looks good though, whatever it is!

Not bad for being rude & crude.

 After faffing around with little delicate pieces, what's not to like about a bit of slap toooo

I guess not a million miles away, We're talking a bout stone that can be split into layers like slate and used for flooring

Given that we're are in the late 1800's on the water front I guess it could be either or both, Do be sure to post a comment on Wharehouse Advisor after your visit 😉

It's looking lovely, there seems to be something missing though. :hmmm: A prize to the first one who can spot what is missing.

Nope again! Look a little higher

This is not meant to be rude but what about BOLLARDS

 

Then I just realise an Alien is asking me to look higher a space ship.  :whistle:

 

I might have to think a little longer on this.  :coolio:

Always taking notes mate pick so much up from your builds like I said this is giving me an idea for one of my unfinished builds to go on to.   :idea:

 

Simple but very effective
