Strange how I just thought of some of you guys as I was working on some photographs.

For those north of the border this is no stranger as it featured in a long running comedy series (Para Handy) about the life and times of the old Clyde Puffers (coal boats!).... just though I would share it for the memory!

Looks like it could do with a bit 'O the Adams touch here and there, say ,a nice ZB red or green, could save you a shilling
or two if you used that to commute to the big "L" and back 'eh ?
All the best, Squire !

There is an old puffer called Para Handy moored in Inverary Harbour at the moment, it used to be moored on the Crinan Canal at Ardrishaig.

Hi Donny, That's where I was dragged up. The puffers used to pass by our window and we often saw the "Vital Spark" on its way to or from filming.
