We met bloggers Jacquie And Stein on `Like Ducks 2 Water` and spent a few hours chatting and drinking aboard their home. Always nice to meet fellow bloggers for the first time. Anyone passing them along the canal you best not pass them by as you will have missed meeting two very nice people.
This is the 3rd Terrapin I have spotted since being afloat. This one was to busy sunning itself to worry about me reversing to get a picture.
Not a clear picture as I had to dive into the boat for the camera and quickly use the full zoom. It`s a hire boat that passed us and they were just about to go under a bridge.
Whether my shout caused this lad to lift his feet I don`t know but at least he did. The gap where his feet are is about the same as that on the right. Not really enough for his feet and if the steerer were to make a mis calculation his feet would be crushed.
Oh what a lovely thing to say about us Jacqueline and Les, I'm sure we'll have people queuing at the stern now!! It was such a pleasure meeting you too, especially with us having so much in common with our partners living outside their home countries, and our zest for life to just enjoy it. I dearly hope we get to catch up soon. ps thanks for tip on settings and pennytalk - done it.
