Dressed in yellow and a little excited, yesterday my position as PR / Photographer / social media / communications expert (cough) officially started, as myself and my partner headed to St Katherine's dock to welcome the Clipper teams into port.
The atmosphere was great, the dock was teaming with folk drinking coffee in between cheers of congratulations, and much to my delight, we even had some volunteers from Dogs Trust UK who bought down a couple of dogs to welcome Gail in.
After all of the boats had arrived, we'd done a few press shots and pointed some old ladies in the direction of the nearest Dogs Trust home, we got to look around the clipper yacht. I have to say, its huge! I'm sure it's not once you have 15 people in there and personally it's definitely not somewhere i want to be for longer than a few hours but it's an impressive piece of kit, just a shame about the lack of beds! (Maybe the 14 packets of Bourbon biscuits would make up for that after ten days at sea.....i think not!)
