WOODEN SHIPS

yo.. slick... innit!


always crazy about something..

when I was young..

and in the tub..

it was boats..

there was one I had..

several of although one at a time..

because the motor got rusty so soon..


I had several crazes on boats..

that tub was like a marina..


anyway..


1995




was the first year we went to portugal..

lagos algarve..

to be precise..

we stayed on a great campsite..

campismo imulagos..


DISAPPEARING WOODEN FISHING BOATS





since then we have returned every year..

and I have recorded the passing of these..

great old boats..

now it is all fibreglass and plastic..

and we will all be poorer..

if only colourwise..
