a fairground life-river festival

well I suppose I did bring it upon myself by saying the words of doom, "another uneventful day!" Yesterday the miami broke down. The coupling between the motor and hydraulic pump sheared and I lost all motive power. It was 10pm by the time we seperated the motor from the pump to confirm the problem. Another is being manufactured tomorrow with the hope of a special delivery on Saturday morning. Fingers crossed or I am going to lose the holiday weekend.
This evening I went over to the Glagow River festival. This is a tall ship event on the river Clyde. The funfair there is on the Finnieston Quay. There are two tall ships at that location and the Royal Navy absail from the Finnieston Crane near the funfair.
Last year it was a scorching hot weekend and over 50,000 people attended the event over the two afternoons. Well worth a visit if you want an interesting day out. Most of the ships are free entry, any way, all are free to look at!
