​I had another incident in this part of the river.  River trips are very popular when you approach the London area and these tour boats are travelling up and down the river as you paddle along.  I had stopped  paddling  to take a photograph and I drifted over to the middle of the river.  A boat like this one came up behind me and gave me a blast on his horn to tell me to get out of the way.   I should have been on the right side of the river and as he passed by me on my right the skipper let me know in no uncertain terms what he thought of me.  I reminded him that power vessels are expected to give way to non-power vessels but he let me know what he thought of that!
