We had a sightseeing with special guests today. Sir Terry Waite MBE and Phil Bigley joined us on the river giving people a chance to ask questions, have photos taken and hear a little about the work of Hostage International.

In addition we all gave our retired Skipper Dave a round of applause and raced back to the marina before the flood gates closed.

No trip is ever the same 😉
