Looks like the ferry ran aground trying to avoid a small yacht in fog. Good to see no one hurt.

And reports of persons in the water. Could be bad news. Lets hope not.

Talking Pictures is soooooooper!

Given the title of this section of the forum, does 'TO' now qualify as 'historic'?

I think you need to consult Professor Bizzard! 😀

Careful. He might be a Ninestone cowboy! 😀

Inane Racket.............? I thought they were a death metal band!

Could it be a wind up? On the odd occasion I have slowed down to tick over to listen to 'The Archers' while steering the boat but only for 15 mins and I hope I won't have disturbed anyone.

Try playing the ball instead of the man.

"I say to you in complete honesty, because this is the movement that I belong to, that I owe this party everything I have got – not the job, not being leader of the Labour Party, but every life chance that I have had since the time I was a child: the life chance of a comfortable home, with working parents, people who had jobs; the life chance of moving out of a pest and damp-infested set of rooms into a decent home, built by a Labour council under a Labour Government; the life chance of an education that went on for as long as I wanted to take it. Me and millions of others of my generation got all their chances from this movement. That is why I say that this movement, its values, its policies, applied in power, gave me everything that I have got – me and millions like me of my generation and succeeding generations." Neil Kinnock, conference speech Bournemouth 1985. (I was there!) And that is why I vote Labour.

Sound very similar to my old Ma. But in my case I was instructed to hover my backside 6" above the bog seat and on no account sit down! She never specified what might have been caught from the seat and I thought it better not to ask but I don't think AIDS had been invented in 1960.
