I was kidding, Mike did invite me. He knows what happens if he doesn't. He knows I don't invite the Queen to my house for tea as she never asks me to hers.

Re: Byron

Morning Mike
Just opened up the forum. Now your invite, all Bray and Windsor annual berth holders are invited as are members of BCC & TWYC. BoatOne and Byron were invited as I was indeed going to introduce tham around as 1) We have many forumites on the marinas and 2) I think they deserve a thank you for the Thames Forum that is becoming a very good communication tool for river folk. I was even going to see if Tony would play his music for us! As it turned out Tony was unable to attend and by the time I had five minutes Byron had left.

Any way Mike glad to be welcoming you back to Bray this winter, and who knows you could be on the guest list next year.

All the best

Re: Byron

But I AM a member of BCC and have been for 15 years and got no invite??

So should I be blaming the powers that be of the club?

Darren, Ian!!!!!!!

Re: appollo

Well, in previous years there has been published in Cruiser News an invite from Mike to all BCC members for the BBQ and it is usually listed on the club planner. You being a long time member would surely remember, no?

Admittedly there wasn't one this year, so perhaps a note for next year's committee - send a note about the MDL BBQ.

Re: appollo

Nothing on the club planner.

Yes, long time member, no, never heard any mention of it in the past?

An email would not have gone amiss?

From my previous times at Bray, you were never allowed in to the bash without an invite, so were we supposed to print out something from the magazine ??

Re: appollo

Nothing on the Club Planner because the date wasn't known last Christmas, as it turned out the normal date was changed.
I thought it was pretty well known that Mike has an open invite to all BCC members regardless of where they moor.

Re: appollo

Well plainly that is not the case!

As I said that evening to you. The entire credit for getting this forum goes solely to Tony (Boat1). He badgered YBW, he circulated people, without a shadow of a doubt he was the leading light.

Re: Byron

Well done BoatOne.

As a relative newcomer to boating I have learned a huge amount from this forum.

However, I think Byron is being rather too modest. He is a leading light of the forum and his posts are always entertaining and informative.

Beers to you both! /forums/images/graemlins/smirk.gif /forums/images/graemlins/smirk.gif /forums/images/graemlins/smirk.gif /forums/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

You leave him alone, he's obviously a person of breeding and intelligence.

Re: appollo

Did you not get Mondello's email? He said to seek out the BCC gazebos.

 

[apollo]

Re: appollo

Oh Yes, but in Ken's normally crystal clear text;-

"This weekend is the MDL party in the marina and BCC will have our gazebos erected, to keep the sun from us. Do seek out the club gazebos and join other members for what will be a good evening."

Where in there does it say, you are welcome even if you do not moor here?

Not being funny, would not put myself through turning up and the humiliation of being refused and turned away unless I knew i was welcome.

Would you?

Are you suggesting he has a NB?

Re: appollo

Ok maybe not clear but I'm sure Mr Gates wouldn't have set the dogs on you!
Assume all events on the BCC calendar you are welcome to attend from now on.

Re: Byron

Yup!
