I'll be dragging The Pasta North again for this. Is there a concensus on a place to sleep Saturday night?

I have a room booked at the Dun Cow. Currently a space available as it's a twin. Neither Sarah or Kiddle2 can make it.

Do you think it would be possible for someone with a camera to go out on a RIB, and organize a fly-by of boats to get some pictures.
We could do with some new exciting pictures of modern boats
3218 Zero Gravitas

I've got a camera with the ability to record some HD video so I'm planning on taking it along on Saturday and capturing some of the action if I can. I'll get some stills and some video.

I will have my hero cam, if the class want a Rib then it's an extra charge I sugest waiting to see if the weather is good for dramatic video shots.
Can I remind all participants that a fee of £15.00 is payable per boat per day to Draycote, please make sure this is payed at the office before you sail as we need to build on the good relationships we have with clubs.

I will not be there until sat afternoon however Dean will bring Eleanor up in the morning.
Have just spent the afternoon replaceing the hub on the trailer after finding out at 4.00pm that the bearing was knackered.
The wife couldn't go shopping, the kids still haven't eaten tea, still if you're going to be in the dog house... do it properly.

Bristol office closed 8pm. The security guard at the Birmingham office was not surprised to see the double stacker - the guard on the gatepost had highlighted us as a potential bomb. Panic over now I have been ID'ed. Hopefully will get to leave and find wife and a pint at the Dunn cow early tomorrow am.

Should be bright eyed for sailing in the morning ;-) Look forward to seeing you all there.
