Solent Christmas Folly Cruise 16.12.06

[Milo72]

The Kings Shilling has been at work and some friends are now coming with us, they have a nipper but I wondered if there was any age restrictions over at the Folly?

The Folly is indeed a family-friendly place Milo. It is a much-loved venue because of its laid-back atmosphere.

Please have a look at pub details here :

THE FOLLY

Great news about the crew!

Andy,

PM sent.

[AndyB007]

Not really worth the paper to print it on (what's the electronic equivalent I wonder?!), but for interest the long term weather says ...

[Biggles]

Everytime you look at the forecast it changes. Can't be as bad as the last couple of weeks though. Fingers crossed.

Hi Clive!

If you brave the ferry system we should be at The Folly around lunchtime and it would be very nice to meet you both.

Failing that there will be many more trips next year (in more clement weather also).

verytricky may be along depending upon your agenda for the day?

(Even though it's a short trip it may well be very cold so worth digging out the cold weather gear/ drysuits etc. particularly for children. )

Due to the unsure weather conditions Steve G (Lynx) and I have agreed we will launch at the Northney Marina about 10AM on saturday 16th. This way we will avoiding Selsy Bill if the conditions are bad.

This is an attempt to collate existing information.

If you haven't got a hangover, please check for errors or omissions and add updates!

Many thanks (Is there an easy way to 'post a table?' )

Great idea to display your RIBnet 'log-on' somewhere on board!
