This was taken last year at the Welland Canal (obviously) and I was with two other contributors to shipspotting who were standing on each side of me and if you could have heard what we were saying about shipspotting.com at that time you might reconsider having that as your desktop! :-D

Don't worry Dave,
Everyone is entitled to there opinion, just wish they would express it to me.
Dialogue as you know is important, and ideas moans etc from the members do help to drive change.
