Yesterday, R & I went to see the tall ships race in Waterford harbour in South east of Ireland, where I live. One of our competitors created the website for the waterford leg of the race and credit where credit’s due, it’s very nice indeed. I used my phone to grab the shot below from the crow’s nest of the indonesian ship. There was a surreal party atmosphere on board this boat and I can strongly recommend anybody attending to competition to check out their easy mix of live song and dance, indonesian beer. In our litigious age it was great fun to be allowed to climb up the rigging with R. A word of warning however. The crewmen were dimunitive in stature and my size 13s found it a little bit difficult to find footholds in the rigging. This led to a few hairy moments 60 foot over the River Suir.
