Mills Dockyard, on the Erewash Canal near Long Eaton… A day of gongoozling and a pub lunch is long overdue!

We’ve not had a ‘Slide Film Sunday’ in a while have we?

The fishing boat E58 MISS PATTIE was photographed at Lyme Regis in September 2003 and as usual the slide surfaced while I was looking for something else entirely!

Yet another place on my ‘must revisit’ list!
