21st June
From our mooring in Cookham we watched a group of children probably 10/11 year olds, having fun sailing toppers on this hot sunny day, lots of shrieks and shouts which got louder for the final part of their afternoon's 'lesson' from the sailing club. A mad and hectic 2 team game of relaying people one by one from shore to rowing boat via a frantically paddled two man craft.
The noise! "hurry up, hurry up" screamed at top volume - as if the paddlers weren't going as fast as they could. Of course the inevitable happened at the end of all this, once the rowing boats could take no more excited children, they started to sink which was the cue for all kids to capsize amidst much screaming and hilarity.
Fantastic.

Fantastic.
