Weston Open Meeting

[Tim Noyce]

Cherubs are joined by the Moths, Canoes and Foiling 600's so should prove to be quite a spectacle.

Generally a well attended and very well run event so get yourself along. Camping is free in the Weston Field so there is no excuse!

[phil_kirk]

So who's coming?

Slippery is going to be there and we're hoping that it will be a little warmer than easter.

Are people camping if the weather looks good.  Do we want to organise a barbeque or is the term 'organise' a little bit optimistic.

[ross_burkin]

Well I'm hopefully crewing for Dave if I have replied to his e-mail in time. I think a BBQ is on the cards if it's possible to get it organised.

[Tim Noyce]

I will be heading south with Badgers and Atom on friday night. I think the plan is to camp in the field but if the weather turns bad then I can put some people up at my parents house which is about 30 mins away. I might have to be excluded from the Saturday nights festivities as I have family over from america who I should probably make the effort to see! I think last year they organised a curry night at the club which was pretty good. I will have a word with Olly Straker and see what is happening this year.

Can we have a head count for boats attending, so far i have Badgers, Atom, Slippery.... come on guys lets make this a good'un as its getting nice and warm now!

[peter_barton]

Roz & I will be there in Ronin 2698

[Tim Noyce]

Great news Pete. Look forward to seeing you there! You sure you've got enough carbon on the t-foil this time? 

[simon_jones]

Dean and I will be there with Loco

[Tim Noyce]

Superb!

I'm most looking forward to getting back in the cherub having not sailed it since Kielder. I've been a bit busy doing 12 foot skiff, Kestrel and Osprey opens! Let's hope for some wind!

[roland_trim]

Born Slippy is already at Weston and waiting.

H&I finished the telescopic bow sprit and lobbed the T-foil on the back today. Boat felt good - strange to sail a cherub in no wind and not be bored (I had a new bit of string to pull on the tiller) - must get back to work or H might find evidence that I have wasted time in the office checking out this forum thingy....

[Tim Noyce]

Well this is all looking very pleasing. We could have 10 boats which would be awesome!

[Will_Lee]

I have evidence of:

Cheese Before Bedtime
Pocket Rocket
Dangerous Beans

Which I think is ten!

[Tom K]

I can confirm my attendance with Dangerous Beans, it will be nice to get out on the water again having handed in my dissertation two days before!

It will also be the first time ill be attending a Cherub event at Weston since I joined the club in 2005!

I will have to check with my flatmates re. their exam times etc, but I imagine that if camping in the field isn't suitable floor space can be arranged at mine about 10 mins away from the club.

[neal_gibson]

mmm i have to confirm i shall not be attending as my crew is fratinazing with his misses or something equalling as crap an excuse probably for the best as 90% of the fleet wouldnt understand a word i said like pet.

[Tim Noyce]

Boooo Neal, boooo 

On a slightly more serious note, Hoppys crew is gonna need a trapeze harness this weekend so could everyone bring any spare harnesses to weston so we can find one which is good please  please confirm if you have a spare so i will know whether we need to ask elsewhere to find one! cheers
