Comments: I am currently reading "The Bluebird Years" and have recently been to Coniston to get a feel for the book and its story. I have to admit I am becoming somewhat fascinated by the whole thing and find myself doing more and more research. I also feel I have a little bit of a connection in as much as I used to work for Fairline Boats for the Newington family which at that time was being run Sam Newington. His father Jack would have supplied the Fairlne 19 boats that were used. Looking through websites and reading the book I find that I may have a photograph that may not be know about, but it is a shot of Bluebird tied up on the jetty with the two Fairlines in the foreground. There are many people assembled on the jetty but I have no idea who they all are. Keep up the good work.

Comments: Have just been to the poll in the Westmorland gazette and I can't believe more people think the bluebird shouldn't have a last outing than should! After all the hard work you guys have put in it really should be up to you and the Campbell family to decide. Me? I and my family follow your work and would Love to see her in all her glory on the lake one last time. Donald Campbell inspired so many with his record breaking attempts. I wonder what he would think? Keep up your dedicated work, whether she runs or not we will come and she her x
