Title: Need help with a lost link.
Post by: The Antipodean on December 16, 2009, 10:51:08 pm

Sadly this week my laptop decided it was time to commit suicide, well at least the OS did, so I had to reformat it and lost all of my links.

The one link I have not been able to recover was on that had a few hundred pics of Thames tugs and workboats, it also had a section on Tales of the Thames, Drydock and a few other galleries.

If anyone knows of this site, or one like it I would be extremely grateful if they could give me the link as it has the detail for one of the tugs I am building.

Cheers
Ian

If you have ever done a backup, then you should have all your bookmarked/favourite pages in a file in the backup.

Unfortuantely when you format a drive, it is all gone, and the last backup before the reformat done before I got the link.

Those are great links andygh, not the one I was looking for, but they are all ones I didn't have and should be great for references for future builds.

Thanks DickyD, lots of tugs there.

I have been having no luck finding the site I am looking for as a search using names I remember from the site, while giving lots of results, does not give me any of the vessels I am looking for.
Seems like google has dropped this site or something.

I found it, seems the site went down and google couldn't find it anymore.

Great galleries and some good information.  Thanks for the help though folks.
