Great Pictures. For those that don't know picture three in the last post is Don Shead, nearest camera and Tommy Sopwith. Great to see them both there.
I have to say that we seem to have done really well with Cinzano Pics! Keep them coming my Daughter loves them, so do I ...

Thanks for the great pictures Nigel. It was great to meet you, I just wish there had been more time for us to talk boats and grab a few beers. Your pictures together with Grahams and the discovery of this site definitely are in a large part responsible for getting me back into the sport. Next time over there is a bolster hole with your name on it.
Cheers

Errrr... Not quite !! Little Nige Saved the day as we were all told to stay in our seats like little children for the duration of the Event missing the action until a hurried phone call to Ciao allowed us to scurry onto deck , Very close to a mutiny in there !!

Did Red Jet run out of coffee and croissant?

I wondered why all the snappers were coming up the stairs at the same time.

Blimey,if I had been there,telephotos would have been weilded.I can just see Mr.Ciao getting pinned to the saloon floor by tim,whilst little nige slips up on deck to do the business.Somehow taking snaps through the windows,a la coach parties doesn`t quite have the same quality about it.

So Mr,Ciao lives to organise another CTC.Thanks for sparing him.If it had been any other organiser,I don`t think he would have been quite so accommodating.

Some tasty shots there Nige and worth the trip over.

Thankyou gents! I'm just glad I had John's number in my phone directory!

For me it was one of the events of a lifetime. A million thanks to absolutely everybody involved, and especially John for making it all happen for me and the other snappers. We are obliged!

THanks to Norty on here also for getting me out there on the RYA RIB for the first race, which thankfully turned out to be a much drier experience than anticipated!

Scarron - hi res should be on it's way to you later today!
