Maist defo - the boatyaird is still thair in aw it's glory. They've got a rather gid website tae wi lots i gemme auld foaties - see www.ufbc.co.uk

Am shair a saw the Intrepid oot the last time a wis doon the shore collectin bits i coal aff the beach fur ma faither's biler.

Ah aften wonder why we nivir tain an interst in sailn - boats n a river oan oor doorstep. The closest we came mind wis Futin Det's idea fur a raft made oot i Foondry yaird barrels.
