Ribnet Cruise to Alderney - The Floptilla
Round the Island trip on Saturday lunchtime. Braye to Burhou to see the non-existant puffins, then onwards to Casquets through a little bit of lumpy water in the Swinge, and then finally around the back of the Island and through the Race before reaching Braye again.

How about this one then, Martini in the air and Hey Joe (?) under your bow . Bit grainy but you get the idea.

I'm quite interested to know what's going on here, any guesses?

In the presence of children too, Mollers you should be ashamed of yourself
