No being able to get to last weekend events I have relied on Bob Abell's pictures from his trials of his cable laying Great Eastern paddler for some pictures of the Saturday regatta
Then on the Sunday for the Lifeboat day I received this picture from Dave Lee and he has promised a few more so watch this space!
Waiting for the crowds!

This weekend we have got another good event at
Marple Locks Festival
This event is only held every other year and if you went in 2009 you will know what a good event it is.
Chris the Exhibition Rep is on holiday so George Barrett has stepped in to run the event, and after being Exhibition rep for 16 years no doubt will do a very good job, but he will need help to set up on the day .
Here are a few pix's to give you a flavour of the day there.

And don't forget its fiesta racing in the morning, so you could go to the fiesta racing and then pop over to the Marple locks show !
Are you going to fit it all in.

Recovering from an operation in a bush hospital Mr Brown asked why the blinds were drawn.
"Well" explained the doctor "There's a bushfire outside, and I didn't want you to wake up and think the operation was a failure.
