EJ and Badgers will be there.

This will be our first sail at a club we have been members of since January!

Cool,

Obviously we will be there.

Kippage at ours will be limited to floor space on Saturday night. Had early booking from my parents and neice who will probably join us for the evening meal at the club.  Lots of camping space at the club within staggering distance of bar.

Overflow Kippage at BGM. Last count 3 doubles available on all evenings + floor space.

We are a bit of a drive away (Keynsham) , so if the weather is good we will be camping at the club and can take a spare tent.

If I can do anything to assist then do let me know! What time will you be travelling over on Friday? I will be able to get out of work around 4:30pm so should be in Bristol for around 6:30pm.

Is anyone coming to Thornbury and passing anywhere near Cranborne in North Dorset? I have a centreboard mould that needs collecting. It's about 6' long and probably quite heavy. Any help greatly appreciated.

Forcast is 12-14 knots on both days around sailing time by most forecasts.  Add the thornbury effect and I think we will all be twinning and having fun.  note it gets bouncy when the tide turns and starts going out.

helping each other with trolleys is always a bonus but there are likely to be freindly club members on hand.
