Ships that pass in the day

I was happily in the middle of my daydream when the helmsman of a boat coming the other way through the bridge signalled to slow down.

My first reaction was that this was a helpful signal indicating there was, perhaps, another boat following.

Then the voice, that seemed rather familiar, saying “it’s Paul, isn’t it?”

“Yes” I said, “It’s Chris isn’t it” as I realised who was coming the other way.

Chris is the man behind Video Active, the other organisation making Canal DVDs and I’ve heard his voice on sound-tracks of their DVDs.

He was cruising with Angela on their boat, Morgan Le Fey, having been filming for one of their DVDs.

We stopped for a quick chat and photo of the boats together, and of Chris trying to get the best photo of them together.  I hope we have time for a proper chat next time we meet.
