Mayhem at Wicksteed - May 25, 26
Sorry Gentlemen, I've accidentally deleted some photos, please can you repost them and I'll move back to the right place.
Lovely pictures Brian. So crisp that you could almost make a model from them. Thanks for posting them.ken
Spotted these 2 the other day...just thought they may be of some interest. I've got a few more closer up ones if anyone is interested. BY.
Ah, well spotted Bryan...A little bird tells me there might be some similar (albeit smaller) at a Model Boat Show near you shortly ...Do you know if the X bows will be there on Monday (23rd Feb 2012)? I might nip down and have a look myself.Regards,Kim
Well, being the 23rd today, I can assure you that they are both still there,However.....there's no way you can get close to them except with a long lens from the north bank of the river....they are moored on the south side. Most of that part of the river is now fenced off and inaccesible to the hoi-poloi like you and me. Local knowledge reigns supreme! Hradly worththe trip really.Unless you'd like another cup of tea. Regards. Bryan.
Did I see a certain north sea ferry in the background of one of those photos?coincidently...there's a documentary on telly later in the year. http://www.jarrowandhebburngazette.com/lifestyle/entertainment/tv_crew_at_yard_when_boat_comes_in_1_4273792Ali
