We go there at low springs to watch those who should have read their charts and tide tables. /forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif

I wonder if you would glean the same pleasure from recording someone not looking when crossing the road and getting hit by a bus........I know its a bit extreme, but I just feel there is something a bit sick in having a laugh at someone else's misfortune.
But hey ho thats life I suppose

While I don't think it's particularly funny, per se, don't the Skippers of these vessels have a responsibility, and shouldn't they be taking things a bit more seriously?

A few hoots of derision are, therefore, in order..... /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

I make you right, maybe I was having a
'taking life too serious moment'...............
