Hi Martyn,

I fear the Dervish are about to spoil the Nile River cruise for the Naval Brigade boys.

and more... Scout's report is in.....there are hostile dhows 10 miles up the Nile.:wink2:

Cheers, Raymond

Martyn,

Very good! :smile2: I like the way you have shrunk your boat to suit this scene, not many collectors would have done this. :rolleyes2:^&grin

Get that Gatling cranking!!

Hi Martyn,

I was wondering what Jeff was referring to re: "shrunk your boat".^&confuse

Then, I scrolled right and there she was.....the Nile River boat was there all along.

I'm rather embarrased to say I missed the boat.:redface2:

Cheers, Raymond.

{eek3} I didn't realise you hadn't seen the launch Raymond, glad you found it in the end, it is quite small and about half a mile from the Dervish^&grin

Martyn,
Very nice yours photographs and setups are getting better and better, not that they were not great to begin with. Enjoyed seeing this setup with my morning coffee.

Very nice photo of the Dervishes firing on the gunboat. I like the picture and background with the boat coming down the river. Nice work. John
