Martin Cartwright's much modified 'Winkle' has to be in it (dear me, Martin, you should consider changing that name ...), and how about Esmeralda, a steam driven Winklebrig launch. New to me at Holyhead Old Gaffers' meeting, but has also appeared at Beale Park I understand. Any other 'unusual Winklebrigs' around?

The accompanying text should have read that, given the thread on 'Winklebrigs in Unusual Places', we need a thread on 'Unusual Winklebrigs'. Martin Cartwright's much modified Winkle (sic) should be in it - but what of Esmeralda, the steam driven Winklebrig launch of Holyhead 2011 Old Gaffers' Festival, and Beale Park. Any other offerings?
And apologies for taking three attempts to get this right. All I had to do is follow Julian's instructions for posting images properly - doh!
