Nice one Hayley, well done and thank you for the hospitality. Sorry we couldn't stay but Julia came back from 35 degrees in Nigeria to no heating on her houseboat...it's what mum's and dad's are for :O)

Big thanks to Roland and Hayley for the accommodation and BBQ, and also to anyone who let me take their boat for a spin. Was an awesome weekend, hopefully be doing nationals now.

Cheers

What can I say, thanks Roland and Hayley for the accomodation and the organisation. And to everyone that brought boats and travelled, in many cases a long way !

Look what we've done ! We had over 30 bodies in R+H's house on Saturday night, a third of which were new faces, all the talk was of the future and the possibilites, the postive energy was enormous !

Err, and it was a freezing February weekend !

Fantastic everyone thank you, sorry if I over badgered anyone about Pwhelli, but you all pretty much said yes - I will be onto you all to make sure you pull through !

Ade, email me on [email protected] as I've got quite a nice (kind of) 'arty' photo of Kokopelli being launched. Can't claim to be a real photographer as it was my lovely wife who took it.

Hayley...I don't think I can upload as yet. Where can I email? Only one is really worth looking at...maybe one or two others.

The photos I took are at http://www.chameleoni.com/BlastFeb2012.zip - perhaps someone cleverer than I could put them somewhere more useful.

Graham, your photos are on Facebook too now
