I wanted to put this page in because a lot of
photo's are not used in the website, and if they
are they can be a bit small, so this is where
they can be found, text is added when
remembered. There are also links to other sites
that may be of interest, if you would like me to
add a link to your web-site, use the contacts
page and I will look and see if it is appropriate.

The Skipper! Doing what
comes natural...
This little boy tried his
hardest to tangle his
fishing line in my mooring
warp,   then summoned
his parents, who had a
decidedly 'ford cortina'
attitude and proceeded to
tell me that I should not
be tying my boat up where
children are fishing, this
was on Town Quay in
Poole, imagine.
