Zug's Mini Tour, Autumn Follow Zug's little adventure here. During the period that I was in the process of becoming a fully paid up member of the Star Tugs Company the other committee members allowed me to take the Zug model on a promotional tour to drum up interest in the 25th Anniversary event on social media.
I never became a full member of the Star Tugs Company due to events that took place prior to my involvement with the organisation so Zug was returned to the collection along with Ten Cents and Sea Rogue during October Zug has settled down to life in the Bigg City Port house and was pleased to be able to watch his TV debut in the room where as a 5 year old Mr Bigg City Port was introduced to the series.
He'd forgotten how nasty his on screen character could be at times but he enjoyed the experience anyway. Although he's never actually been afloat he enjoys any opportunity to be near it and it reminded him of all of the fun that he had at the Moira Canal Festival. He even met a Water Bailiff and fan of the series who was amazed to see that he is still smiling. Friday 19th September Zug appears to have had a few too many this Friday night.
Zug paid a little visit to Bigg City Port's local pub on Friday to celebrate his first Friday Night away from the exhibition on his own. From the wobble he seems to have it looks as though he may have had a few too many drinks. Saturday 21st September Zug enjoying the sailing at Bart's Bash. Zug paid a visit to the inaugural Bart's Bash event today which saw 56 sailors take to the water at Pennine Sailing Club in a Worldwide event that celebrates the life of Andrew 'Bart' Simpson.
All participating clubs compile their results meaning that every competitor around the world gets a result against each other. This is based on the distance of the course, number of laps completed and wind conditions on the day. Unfortunately Zug's lack of sail power meant that he couldn't compete in the event, but he enjoyed the spectacle enormously, especially when the last two flying Lancaster Bombers made their flyby over Pennine Sailing Club during their last engagement of Thursday 25th September Shepperton Studios.
