Description
Someone tipped me off about this event and I went into Cowes to sketch it on location, is is a celebration for 200 years of yacht racing from the Royal Yacht Squadron. From the shore it looked as though Princess Anne waved at us, when I looked in detail at a neighbours photos it was actually a man standing behind with his hand up in the air – being me I put her waving regardless. The TV crew from South today were interviewing members of the public and I took the opportunity to talk about my sketch. It was odd seeing myself on TV later in the day and blissfully the camera filters had magically improved my voice tone and sunburn. You can read a bit more about the squadron here
