In that respect we were quite privileged to have an unhindered pitch with a full view of the boats.

It's really great to read your post and see your pics about what actually happened.<br /><br />I'm doing a blog post today about Jubilee Art. May I use your boat painting and the photos of you and Haidee? I'll include a link to this post so that I can then send everybody across to read this post.Making A Markhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13509483023337008890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3729131942320060374.post-66714142227852514812012-06-05T18:00:35.325+11:302012-06-05T18:00:35.325+11:30Great stuff.
