What is this?
I love being moored here watching everyone floating around messing around in boats. Yesterday this boat went past - I have never seen one before... have you?
It's the kind of canoe that Canadian fur trappers used to use...my Great-uncle Frank was one in the 1930s.
ReplyDeletehe was a canoe or a fur trapper?

I believe he was a fur trapper. Sadly. I never met him as he was an aircraft instructor during WWII and one of his pupils crashed, killing them both.
ReplyDeleteOh, I recognise the bank. I'd pop by tomorrow, but I'm at a wedding in another County.
ReplyDeleteIt is a chilli. A very big one.
