Saturday 5th June 2004
The regatta this year has been spoilt because of having to
change the date because of another event in the village. Shame
really as the fete is not dependent upon the tides as is the
regatta. Never mind, as usual, the weather behaved impeccably and
the crowds appeared to be joining in the fun..

Crabbing competition, Dodger, Dave at al, having better
things to do

.
Looks quiet,
but looks are deceiving
|
Unfortunately, I was off colour this year and the number
and quality of the images are not as good as previous years, blame the
Legion (chuckle)

Into really serious crabbing
|
.
Do dogs like crabs?
|

I moved down river to get these pictures, the noise was
getting to me.

.
Under sail, she looks
grand, must have been something else when these were common
place on the river.
|

I have now rejoined the throng and still they arrived,
crowds that is.
|
.
The regatta is in
full swing, better than me.
|
I managed to take some video of the
regatta which I will publish in a village DVD which will
start production this spring.
Albeit this years regatta was marred by local yobs
brawling, it was considered a minor blip in a perfect day and we all look
forward to the 25th June 2005 for next years Rowhedge Regatta.
