Old Peterborough canoe
I have an old Peterborough canoe, built in the 1920s. I bought it from
somebody who bought it from the Royal Military College in Kingston, Ontario. At the time I intended to restore it, because it's a real classic canoe, and it had been sadly abused by having several layers of badly applied fiberglas slathered all over it. I started work, but I discovered that standing over a work bench was just as bad for my knees as running, mountain biking and cross country skiing, so it's been sitting there collecting dust for years since. As have I. Now I'm moving house, and I need to get rid of it. Is there any hope in hell that somebody will want this poor neglected piece of history, or should I just break it up into bits and throw it away. -- Paul Tomblin http://xcski.com/blogs/pt/ I've long believed that a large amount of our current technology was invented by SF writers, and remained fiction until some geek read it and thought "I know how to build that". -- Andrew Dalgleish |
