Three Men in a Boat

To say Nothing of the Dog.  The dog's name was MontMorency.  This is a book I got for a few dollars last week when we were flitting around Docklands. Those were the days. (Was that only 10 days ago?) It was written in 1888 and has been produced as a film more than once, as well as a TV series.  Three dunderheads go on a boating trip up the Thames.  It was all the rage at the time. It seems that sails could be used, oars could be used and pulling from the bank was also customary.  Now I need to find the TV or film versions. Towards the end it rained for two days so they cut and ran by catching a train. I remember thinking this a few times on bush walks  but there were no trains available.

I can also report that my short story has been read on the ABCTales site at least 20 times in the first week.  I don't think this rates well enough to be made into a film though. haha.
