It is ages since Little Dragon has been sailing and I decided it was time. The two Johns were keen, the forecast was for a superb sunny winter day with 8-9 knots SW. Just right. It turned out to be a glorious day on the river - but not for sailing, the wind never came up above 1 - 2 knots. So we sailed ever so sedately with the tide down river and when the tide turned headed up river all the way to the bridge. We all look a bit glum in the photos, don't know why as we all had a good day.

The Johns asked me to photograph the giant cranes (see below).

| The old highway has become a local road so the old bridge will still open when needed. |
