A really big sorry if

you were the 3 guy's in the Tornado of North Foreland last night that got drenched by some LOON in a bright yellow rib.

Daniel was driving, I was just hanging on for grim death!!

Daniel would say sorry himself but I think he maybe nursing a hangover.
PLease remind me never to go out on a School Night again!

Regards

That's OK Jon,
Apology accepted, I was out in my Ribtec ( must look like a Humber) we started out in St. Austell Bay but did go a fairly long way east for an hour or so.Your right, there were 3 of us, me, my son and his er... guinea pig. Anyway no harm done, except of course you drowned my 601 so just pop a new one in the post and I see no reason to ever mention this unfortunate episode again.

If you had been on jetskis you would have been called "irresponsible hooligans" or words to that effect!!!

Your came a hell of a long way East if you left St Austell and then were off Margate last night!!
Well impressed

Dan

no point trying to put the blame on me.
My sidekick was in the boat too!!!!
She say's thank you, she had a great evening.
Mind you the date she blew out was not too chuffed.
If any of you get the chance to get Dan drunk, its well worth the effort, very funny to watch!

I will say we were not drunk on the sea, that all came after we had recoved the boat.
Cause that is just down right stupid!

Cod

Your not wrong!
It was the way Dan never even said sorry just waved and drove off.
Mind you was as funny as you like .
By time us in back realised what was happening it was all over!

Regards

Jon,

I have to beg the question as why your radio did not work at the time to pass your appologies on there and then ??!!!!!!!!! I guess the obvious answer is that the other boat did not have an ICOM !

Just make sure that if you were not driving that you dont get another surprise bill for Eire taxi services.

Cheers

John

Hi Daniel - of course your welcome along, not sure whats planned yet, we'll be at Hernia Bay around 09:30 ish, weather depending it may be a run to the forts, monty and back around the island, if the weather blows up a run down the swale and up the medway returning the same way, will see on the day.

ONLY those who are deemed as being on a 'JETSKI' would be tarred with that old brush ................

Those of us who frequent the waters with a 'PERSONAL WATERCRAFT' however, do tend to have a more quaint and elegant manner about us !!!
