Portsmouth Queen heads for Gosport. Superb little beastie. Not easy to steer....
This is by no means easy - Portsmouth Queen - looks a bit like tank controls....
St Faith rests at Fishbourne. I'm still in disbelief I got to steer!
MV St Faith. I think she was more nervous than me for the three seconds it took to take this.....(clearly I wasn't at the helm for 10 minutes or anything like that)
....but still smiling!
More difficult than it looks.....

DMS1626 at North Weald 1986. This spin may have been the catalyst for a desire to be able to driver booses. Stewart Cameron at the wheel.
MRA13 in Alloa. She appeared at Millars Truck Centre, abandoned and blocking the road. I took it upon myself to bring her into the yard and park her up.....
MRM88 passes the Carronbridge Inn. Had a spin from Millars Truck Centre at Carronshore. Don't think anyone noticed....
