Yes Chris caught me earlier next to Keith outside the pub.  And there will be some from Trystan I'm sure, he had a cute little widget that worked his camera by remote control so we should all appear together at some point.

I'm not daft enough to take my own  ;D ;D

These were taken in the Fishing District.

Our historical guide (what was his name? Chris was it :)?) expained that at one time, if someone was caught smuggling, his boat would be cut in half. These half boats were often used as homes.

So spot the half boats
Byers (Salford & London)
Stringfellow (Salford & Chorley)
Holmes (Manchester & Birmingham)
Goulding/Golden (Birmingham & Lincolnshire)
Bassett (Manchester & Salford, Staffordshire)
Child (Lincolnshire)
Belshaw (Salford)
Hallsworth (Eccles & Salford)
Vernon (Bury & Chapel en le Frith)
