Messing about with boats

Usual ways of doing so

 

Boats moored on The River Orwell, just outside Ipswich.  

Boats on the River Orwell, just outside Ipswich.

Those of you who have done it, will know what a pleasure it is to spend a nice day on the River.

This page is for showing you one or two very unusual ways to use a boat. If any of you wish, forward me your pictures of a similarly unusual use of a boat for consideration to unclude in my Guest Page.

     

The boat on the right is called Bill Baggins.

Click on it to enlarge, and you will see for yourself.

This boat was seen at Teignmouth, in Devon. Beverley just had to photograph it, both of us having read (and re-read) and thoroughly enjoyed "Lord of the Rings", by J.R.R. Tolkien, if you havn't read it, you should!

What an original way to recycle an old boat

I think that this was also in Teignmouth. Not only is this a novel use for a boat, it also looks great! Top marks for style and originality.

Animarrows!

These animated arrows are new. They currently both go back to the previous page. When I sort a transparent background they will appear on more pages. For now, they are also in use to link the enlarged versions of the pictures on this page, click on one of them to see what I mean.
