Another god photograph Calum. Is that a particularly windy hillside, all the trees appear flagged.

A trainee co-pilot getting used to getting in and out of the MOG. ![[Linked Image]](https://www.tm-img.com/images/2020/11/27/IMG_0334.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](https://www.tm-img.com/images/2020/11/27/IMG_0332.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](https://www.tm-img.com/images/2020/11/27/IMG_0337.jpg) She is a bit large for the job and her butt barely fits in the seat.

She is gorgeous. What does she reckon to you starting up? Thank you. This is going to be a baby steps adventure. She is very curious about the machine and I have trained her that the pipes are hot and dangerous and she gets it. However this is the first time she was encouraged to get into it and once she can get in and out (maybe a welding blanket is in order) then I will try starting it with her in a harness and using Doggles. And then, as you mention, the noise on startup. She loves getting into our Mini Coopers but gets pretty nervous when they move, but I have noticed she calms down some when she can stick her head out the window. In a Mini that is difficult but the MOG is so open air I think she might like it. Once she gets used to Doggles then a trip a to the end of our driveway and then another to the end of the block and eventually all around the block. It is all about baby steps.

This is a question about photographs.
The Falkirk Wheel is an amazing thing, as is the Morgan Three. Do they ever barge vehicles down that waterway and if so a great photo would be a barge of Morgan 3's riding the wheel.

I like your idea Stephen.. While the canal system was used to transport many things in times past, it is just used by pleasure craft these days, few if any are likely to be able or equipped to take the load of a M3W not to mention the degree of difficulty to get it load and unload it.. ? I think there may be the remnants of a canal side hand operated crane near me, though not been there in years.... Apparently it may only take circa 3KW to rotate the wheel when fully loaded.. Clever stuff indeed. and the Kelpie statues nearby are just wonderful, they may even be the largest equine statues in the world...?
