Man uses toy tug boat to cruise down river
Everyone has their preferred method of getting from point A to point B, and as we can see from this story some forms of transportation are more eccentric than others.
Mick Carroll was strolling through the UK town of Market Drayton when he spotted a local man on the river, making perhaps the most unusual commute of all time.
The man cruised in a kayak like vessel that was towed by a remote-control tugboat.
Carroll couldn’t resist the opportunity to take a couple of photographs, and posted them to Facebook with the caption, “Dont ya just love eccentric’s. Seen this fella as we were passin thru Market Drayton gettin pulled along by a remote control tug. Brilliant.”
The man himself sounds like he had a sense of humour, and reportedly shouted out to Carrol as he cruised past, “Just when you thought you’d seen everything!”
How funny! Now we have seen everything. Do you have a friend or family member who’s also as lovingly eccentric? Let us know in the comments.
