A stroll along the Deben
Dinghies on the Deben
Concertina player and occasional songsmith Alan Day is one of those unfortunates who would enjoy boats and boating – if only their seasickness were less severe.
Alan tells me he gets seasick standing in a puddle, but his affliction hasn’t prevented him taking this series of photos along the banks of the River Deben in Essex a few days ago. I must say it looks charming and I look forward to visiting by water sometime.
Note the name of the old wooden motor cruiser in the final photo. I gather it belongs to a local man of the cloth.
If anyone can add any information about the boats in the photos please, I’d be most grateful!
