I was going to say 'as long as you don't bring that blonde with you' but...you can. Good to see the Blonde back in action.

You can pay on the day, I expect it will be in the region of £30 for the two days.  There is floor space for all at ours (bring sleeping equipment and your own toothbrush....)  There are even 2 spare beds and a camp bed for those who let me in at the start on the Saturday and don't tack on us  ;D

I'll take that offer...but you'll probably chuck me out on Saturday after I say 'Oops, sorry Andy...tried to but couldn't'  :)

So as this is just over a week away who is comming?  And who will be around for the evening as I need to book the curryhouse.  I'll also post a link to their menu so we can order mains in advance and reduce the wait....

So far I've seen the following saying they will be there:

Sweet Dreams
Evo
Born Slippy
Eleanor
Usagi
Atum
Slippery
TWU
Ronin
Subtle
and I'm assuming Riot Van

Who else?

Ade and Joe (Sweet Dreamzzz) wont be staying for the curry. we are staying at friends north of QM so will have to pass, save me a papadom for Sunday though. Hopefully all the Midlands posse will all be coming (that is loco, blonde, norfolk in chance) not yet on your list Andy. If anyone in the Midlands wants to borrow Kokopelli she is ready to go but needs picking up.
Has anyone heard from Ben??? Ben if your boat not fixed yet i have a spare pole you can use!!!

Hi Andy,
Alex and I will be there for the sailing but not the evening.

If you are taking orders we request 15-20kts with a 10' lift each time we tack.

See you then.

We(Norfolk) can't make that weekend due to prior commitments.  I'm keen to try and make some of next years events though. 

Ade drop me a text when you get a chance(I think you put me in your phone as Cherub Tom).  It would be good to try and organise another mini meet at Carsington before the really cold weather arrives!

Hi Ade,
We are currently visiting Helen's sister in Florida and so are not finding the weather too much of a problem.

Alex has been using some Gill regatta gloves. We are yet to face the challenge of proper Cherub winter sailing.

Last year we got out of it when I was knocked off my bike. This year we might spend the winter boat building.

He had some good neoprene gloves in the RS200 but I doubt that they would last a weekend in the Cherub.

QM might be a nasty shock.

Sorry not to be of much help.


Clive

Ade, if it helps I have very little hands and am not good with the cold (i turn into a corpse at below 10 degrees C). I had some azure neoprene gloves in xs that fitted well and were quite warm. They lasted a few outings, but expensive consumables. when it was really cold I wore grippy builders gloves over the top. These were too big on their own, but the best compromise I could find in the cold. Have now found thermal builders gloves, which are cheap and super warm. They go down to size small only in very select places, and are still too big, but they are the best compromise i've found. Oh, and they are dayglo yellow, so harder to lose  ;D

Hi Andy,

Can we confirm start on Saturday is no earlier than 11:30?

Thinking of coming down early Sat AM, so don't want to miss the start

It looks like we'll be missing this one now as Dean can't sail. Still it's not all bad I forgot to get my drysuit fixed at the end of last winter, and I wasn't really looking forward to the cold.
