	May 8 2008 Maybe difficult to see, but despite trying to control the temperature, I missed an air bubble on the hull. It is about 5 mm diameter. A friend suggested to prick the bubble at two points and then apply epoxy using a syringe and needle. The local chemist sold me a syringe and needle.
	Applying pressure with the syringe, I could see the epoxy wetting the glass and then popping out of the second hole I had pricked.
