Solent this weekend? (Saturday 30th)

Gra · 27 November 2002, 00:02

Anyone up for a run from Portsmouth (Camber Quay) to Yarmouth on Saturday at around 10:30? rsvp

Gra

I might be. I keep the boat at Port Solent so am close.

I'll hopefully know by tomorrow morning.

Any idea on weather?

Sounds Good to me

Bittentobuggery · 29 November 2002, 09:55

Stuart,

If you're in the chair
I'll definitely be there

nigelt · 29 November 2002, 18:28

Now not out on Saturday but out on Sunday. Probably in Cowes for lunch. Then around Solent.

Callsign 'Cheviot' on Ch16.

Nice response chaps - the weather is looking OK for the AM, worsening in the PM, so, early as you can AM it is then.

Don't forget - first one there pays the £2 to open the gate for the rest OK?!

Dependent on the weather, I will either aim for Folly Inn (Medina) or The Kings Head at Yarmouth.

Look forward to seeing you out there

Call me on 16 or 72 as 'Ribeye'

I'll be going by boat from Southampton, so I will try out the new QHM procedures and meet you in the Dock.

Whiteshoes if I see you then remind me to tell you the tractor joke. Where is the Chair or did you mean am I buying the drinks

Bittentobuggery · 29 November 2002, 21:42

It's a fence at Aintree of course, but as you're offering it would be rude to refuse.

The punchline to the tractor joke isn't "Oi don't unnerstand it, it only came up to there on the ducks" is it ?

Warsash 10.30ish , callsign "Ronnie"

thewavehumper · 29 November 2002, 22:13

Whiteshoes

I fell for that one or should it be I fell at that one. Cool it will be good to meet you,

No that isn't the puchline it's a little johnny joke

callsign CT41

Guys If myself and Whiteshoes are meeting at Warsash at 10:30 ish then we ain't going to be in Camber dock at the same time so we could make our way towards Portsmouth and pick you up on the VHF

cheers

didn't meet eny of you out there unfortunately, but wasn't it a great sea for ribbing,

cheers

Hi Stuart,

We were late getting down to Warsash - 11.15. Tried you a few times on the radio, but were unable to get a response.

We should have told you we'd be in the Kings Head at Yarmouth where we met Graham.

Fortified with three beers an excellent chilli burger, we then set a new speed record in our boat 42.6 knots with the flooding tide.

Sorry we missed you, it was an excellent day, made even better by a decent win on the Premiership (£610) as we drove back up.

Catch you next time - You're still buying !

All the Best

It's not the first time a few people have told me they were going to one pub and then all went to another one, but strangely enough it hasn't happen since i stopped wearing the liederhosen.

I am definitely gong out this weekend.

cheers
Stuart
