Must admit I'm pretty much the same, East coast stuff I'm interested in but I haven't got enough spare time these days to go wandering off round the country, or more likely talk dominated by South coast stuff. I think you may well be right Lisa, reasons for anything being started are most likely...
Been a bit busy of late but the ECF has been on FB for quite a while now, started the group as a fall back but even gatherings are being organised there these days :encouragement:

Anyone from my neck of the woods wants to join in but don't have a tender, you're welcome to borrow mine, never got round to completing the outboard bracket but she does have oars
It was doing just fine, right up to that post, that's the point where most just think there's no point bothering to reply, up to then there may have been some leg pulling, even some gently saying it's boring, but no insults right up to that post. That's when people on here give up, that's when...
