MIDLANDS POSSE 2013
« on: March 04, 2013, 06:00:28 PM »
THE SUN IS OUT. THE SKY IS BLUE. I'M THINKIN OF SAILING. HOW ABOUT YOU?
torchy, stom, deefender, and any others. Are we all up for Chew? I know I am. What about a regular once a month at Carsington, Rutland or other near (big) venues to suit. Let get some dates organised. Say; in-between the opens so that gives us 2 each month to get our teeth into. what yer all think! Anyone else can come as well of course...

The sun may be out and the sky may be blue but it's ffffffreezing

27th or 30th for mini-blast?

Any other takers? Where's Tom? Will email him if he doesn't pop up

I can bring Cheese if Digby and Jamie re-rig her successfully at Chew and are up for it.

I may bring a friend's daughter and possibly other Brum Uni students...maybe to the one after if this one looks too cold

Just checking; should that read 23rd March or 30th March. I can do the 23rd. The 27th is a Wednesday and I cant do the 30th.
We can hopefully start to sort out other midland blasts this weekend (Draycote etc)
cheers ade

Sorry I haven't replied to your mail Nigel, I've had my head stuck in work since i returned from Japan.  I'm still happy to help you make your T foil if you need my pump etc.. We'll have to sort a mutually convenient time.

I'll come along for the blast if someones willing to take me out.  Our boats still part way through being refurbished.  It's been a bit too cold to get a reliably decent cure on the resin whilst the boats on our drive... hopefully should warm up a bit in the coming weeks and I'll get her finished!

Hi Tom, I'd forgotten about the email...no problem, Sam and I are heads down on other things currently but was planning to touch base with you about making foils sometime. Definitely still up for it but new grandchild and 'life' have got me busy too.

Sam is unlikely to be at Carsington so Loco needs a crew/helm.

23rd looks like the date. I'll watch the weather before inviting Abi and students along...no point in putting her/them off

Heads up...illness in the family may prevent me coming....will let you know when I know.

(it's not me this time and currently isn't too serious, though a bit worrying)

Whilst i have a spare 5 mins, what are your thoughts on coming to Draycote?

Price would be £20 per boat for a day. If you do an official training, Saturday is £20 and Sunday is £4, on Sunday you can join in the windward/leeward racing.

If only a few boats want to come and play, then I'm happy to organise a 'blast'

Thanks
Jamie

I'm definitely up for something.

This Saturday I'm on duty at Bartley but I'm happy to upsticks any Saturday with a good forecast to Draycote or Carsington.
