Bedajim - Since joining this forum in September I've been chuffed with the huge amount of support and help people have offered me having bought our first RIB, plus having been lucky enough to take part in a trip organised by Andre, I thought it woud be good to offer something back that everyone, regardless of boat size, location or state of repair (and there's a few of those around  ) could, if they wanted to, take part in.
Clearly the idea is a dud one but I don't think I really needed my nose rubbed in it

What is it with people on here recently, the lass isn't making anything out of it, isn't trying to rip anyone off, isn't asking for someone to build a 5m RIB and send it to Thailand all she's doing is having a bit of festive spirit.

So anyways, I was thinking we could maybe switch Ribnet off at night? It would reduce Carbon Emissions and possibly embarrassment levels as well.
I'd get more sleep too

Why not just have an 'I haven't been drinking Strongbow' test?

Jim, you're a nasty director of traffic.
What is a director of traffic? Are you a traffic light?

Put me down
for a box of shotgun shells for Garton. I think it will be the present that keeps on giving I suspect he'll be able to shoot himself in the foot again and again and again.

Knot Yet, it was a good idea, dont let anyone tell you different.
It was always going to be difficult getting it off the ground, unfortunately those who would have probably taken part stayed quiet, whilst the more negative, got on and did what they do best ...
