The Weybridge Sailing Club Monologues Volume II - Carter T.J.

Six more melodramatic tales, variously set upon the River Thames and its banks between Thames Head and Hampton Court. The Weybridge Sailing Club Monologues were written for recitation and have all been performed as after-dinner entertainment. "Writing is a particular skill. Writing in an amusing style in rhyming couplets is an even more demanding art form-and writing in such a way as to reduce an entire room of listeners to helpless laughter requires real talent-and boy does Dr .Tim have it." Mort Smith, "Riverwatch", Surrey Herald. "Eccentric characters and River Thames landmarks mingle at breathless speed. Words pop up in rhyming surprises. The rhythm evokes a Thames rowing skiff and captures the reader's attention... a pleasure surpassed only by a live performance by the author." Paul Antrobus, yachting author and journalist.
