Yarmouth and The Needles - An Evening Blast!

As the nights get longer, and the weather gets better (he says, looking out of his window at an overcast pompey...) the time is right for an evening rib!

So, who will join me for a trip on the 26th May, Solent Area, for a blast to the needles and a play/photoshoot/boat swap/fuel guzzle, followed by a hearty dinner in the ever pleasant Harbour of Yarmouth?

No concrete timing plans as yet, currently I wil be taking Greyhound launching from Camber, and benc will be along in either Intrepid, or a new surprise! Ben will be launching from Warsash.

Marvellous. One would hope the weather shall remain clement, otherwise it would be simply awful...

If anybody want's to come but is ribless, I will probably have a couple of spare crew spaces!

Although we are on the hamble most of the time the boat is at home (hedge end) so we have to plan trips a bit in advance!!

Sounds good to me.

With food in mind, Andy and I have been to the bugle inn (just down from the kings head) in yarmouth 3 or 4 times lately, and have found it a lot better than the kings head (nicer food).

If the weather is crap we can always do Cowes or the Folly instead.

Ricky

An Evening's Blast

Hi Guy's & Doll's

Having recovered from a very busy weekend at Ribex Driving for Andre, I need to get to work on Southcoast II. She has been a little neglected this year.

Hopefully if I can get all the work finished in time will be up for this trip. If not may be up for thumbing a lift for myself & Kathryn

Cheers
