Here are a few snaps of the event for you to enjoy. The weather for Saturday was perfect, while Sunday was grey but dry.

Saturday was north to Ambleside for Ice Cream, while Sunday was South for (a very expensive!) lunch at a posh Hotel (Lakeside Hotel). Very nice indeed. I am surprised that they served scruffs like us steam boaters.

We all would like minions... especially those of us fond of running in the salty stuff. Our launch Otter is often a bit wet while driving into a light chop + wind as the salt spray finds its way onto every bit of brasswork...

Sure it's still legal, you only get an 18 year lease per slave though, and sometimes it will seem as though you're the slave and they're the master.

I just gained my freedom some six years ago... Though I was given the choice to work for my master if I so choose.

I think your slaves were just freed a couple years ago also, eh Bart? Very Happy

Great pictures by the way Peter
