Splatchers

Mud manoeuvrability is a subject I need to address, in order to examine a Tesco trolley long abandoned on the inter-tidal zone off Rochester Riverside. I am building my own Splatchers in the studio – Mud Walker Boots Mk1, from an old Boots wine fermenting bottle and a pair of ski fastenings. I also remember reading about Adrian Sellick in Bridgewater Bay, Somerset who negotiates his own treacherous estuary using a Mud Horse, though on this ocassion I do not require such advanced transportation.  The following is a link to his story in the Daily Telegraph:
