Nice pics, David; that's a lovely one of you and Casey on the training ship.
Shame about the weather though.

The Grand Turk normally lives in Whitby so quite a journey to get it there - wonder if it went around Scotland or England to reach Whitehaven?

Great shots, you and Casey seem to be enjoying yourselves despite the weather.
