Udate ;

I saw all garmin accessories, leads, holders e.t.c. 50% Off (Narked take note). I bought a blue chart compatable Garmin 176 for £290 (still one left, it can also be used in your car, I already have all the europe street maps,)and the Atlantic charts £100 includes 16mb chip & 1 zone e.g. south coast download unlock code.

Dog crewsaver lifejacket £12, silva ALBa windwatch £60 (barometer, wind speed, temp e.t.c.), and other bits and pieces.

note; as I was leaving lower discounts up to 60% were put on, I am going back tomorrow as all clothing is reduced, needed more time.

Any shopping lists let me know. I am in meetings all day, but I can collect e-mails on my pda. or ring me about 4.20pm or tonight.

Cheers,

Pete

Matt, SAVE your money for the ruddy SIB so you can go on 'The Great Orkney SIB Expedition 2003'. Remember what happened last time!

Keith, calm down! If all goes well, shortly after new year I will have about double the amount I need to buy the SIB thanks to some work that has come my way. Added to that, the current plan is Stuart (thewavehumper) takes his 15hp outboard up to Orkney and joins me in my boat if I don't have my own engine by then.

So as you can see, got it sorted

Matt

What, does he use glue or sutures? Why did you fall apart in the first place?

Humour personified, thy name is Keith!
I'll have to be sure to bring up plenty of my CDs so that I can drown out the jokes with guitars.

No problems Daniel, might have something sorted on the VHF front anyway.

Today I got 5 crewsaver lifejackets, 4 manual gas £65, 1 manual gas + Harness £89 each - all less 50%, saved £280 on a colour plotter, apparently another of the shops may now not be sold and new stock was transferred in for them to sell. It is a bit hit and miss, I guess if you were to go early in the morning you get the best deals. Stuff was flying out the door this morning. I don't know if more stock is expected in.

Pete
