Eel Pie Island

[Forbsie]

For anyone interested, an excellent book was launched last week on the chequered history of Eel Pie Island.

Currently on special at Amazon.

Are you in it?

It certainly had its moments - The Rolling Stones, George Melley and, more lately, Trevor 'Clockwork' Bayliss.

Some years now since you and I first met on the slipway there and I was confronted with that 'highly original' so called ''marinised' engine in that boat you rescued from a field somewhere..... a Buckingham wasn't it?

Yup, I think the engine is under a tarp in the yard somewhere and the Buckingham 25 is on the outside of the moorings.

Doesn't time fly!
