@PS_Waverley and @KingswearCastle at Dartmouth today

@BartGonnissen Thank you. Very interesting history. Pleased to see that she has received assistance quickly and is now underway again, hopefully not damaged.

[RichardCD @RichardCD4]

@BartGonnissen This looks like a beautiful vintage vessel. I hope it's not damaged or in danger.

[RichardCD @RichardCD4]

@towing_man Superb! And here you are, as seen from the shore.

[RichardCD @RichardCD4]

@tugspotter Ok, I have just sent again.

Already sorted for accommodation thank you, but maybe another time for that!

[RichardCD @RichardCD4]

@tugspotter Thank you so much Roger -- I would definitely like the ticket please.

I did already email that address on 3rd February to ask, but didn't receive any reply.

I shall try again now. 🙂

The £2 bus fare cap is helping with the cost of living AND tempting more people onto buses.

It's due to end in December, but we're calling for it to be extended.

The cap costs the Government £350m a year - the same amount as could be raised by applying VAT to private flights.

It may have been @Solent_Cruises Ali Cat running the round-the-harbour trips today, but that looks like an #OldSeaDog to me!

As the last vestiges of dusk flee from the distant Welsh skies, the beautiful and unique paddle steamer @PS_Waverley arrives back at Clevedon tonight at low tide after a full day trip to Ilfracombe and Minehead.

[RichardCD @RichardCD4]

@SealandDuchess @PS_Waverley @MaunsellForts Yes it was!

[RichardCD @RichardCD4]

What a fantastic match!

@Solent_Cruises From Blue Funnel to Red Funnel. Yet the ferry itself has.... no funnel!

Anyway, hopefully its future will be more secure now.

@teamspijsenkaas @tugspotter Well this is marvellous! Nearly fifty years older here but share that same fascination. Agree that the Erasmusbrug is very cool, especially the bascule section. Here is my 2022 video of Llanthony Lift Bridge, Gloucester, UK, for your nephew's interest.

@jimmywhite147 you've been doing this for most of my life. What a sportsman, what a legend.

@Krispen_Ships @PolruanPilot What a fantastic trip that must have been? If only these still happened!
