 Posted: Sun Apr 12, 2009 10:00 pm Post subject: The pool at Tilford |
 |
|
Tilford was very good this year....No Snow despite Richard's presence! I settled into the schoolhouse as it was next to the pool and spent most of the day boating.
A few pictures:-
Colin prepares his Fantail
And sets off his Hobbies
Athene in motion
One of the usual suspects
Dereham Eagle slips past a Dereham Seahawk
Colin Laker gets down to some serious photography. Seahawk, Eagle and Snipe.
From the sublime to the ridiculous, Steam Launch Mabel and Daphinia.
Mamod Meteor and a pair of very pretty launches.
Swallow at full chat. Much faster than the other Dereham boats. Probably due to the excellent burner
Mamod Meteors on patrol. The forward boat being rammed by a river launch.(?Mabel).
Enjoy

Great pics, I only managed to get round the school house way once and saw you talking by the pool but it didnt register to say hi 
Good pics anyway and that "Usual Suspect" gets about a bit!
