As recounted in the Medway RentaCrew thread, Oldgit and Sue were kind enough to join us as we moved Legacy upriver to its new home at Bray Marina yesterday.
It was a lovely day for it, a convivial lunch was enjoyed in ASK! at Staines, the river was in a kindly state of mind and there were few other boats out and about, albeit quite a few rowers around Chertsey to Staines.
Kept an eye open for Doolittle and rr123 as we passed their drums but no sightings. Gavi was tryng hard to look busy cleaning and prepping Shikara II and volunteered that Richard Shead had passed earlier. When asked what boat they were in the best description he could give was "a 20 foot brown thing".
Suspect we saw the "20 foot brown thing" in Bell Weir to Old Windsor stretch although I would have said it was more a yukky olive green job. We waved, and they waved, but I suspect did not realise who we were.
Anyway, caught Fred in a pensive moment. Anyone care to guess what was going through his mind?
