Rubber Ducky, You're The One!


This is the starting line for the Great Brisbane Duck Race which isn't until October 30th but they want to promote it a bit.

Duck was seriously prodded by rowers this morning. I am surprised he has not deflated by now. He's looking a bit miserable in the rain this morning! A-M xx
