Hmm, now to formulate a plan and how to swing it with SWMBO

Thank's for the heads-up. Was thinking of heading that way in July as part of my ploy to avoid the Olympics, so it looks like the Baltic then.

Great stuff but you have to put up with far too much bad shanty singing and an overabundance of cider drinking 'types' in red neckerchiefs!

All together now .........

"Twas down in Albert Square ... I never shall forget!" ... etc etc.

Yep, we've just pencilled it in as an alternative to Cowes classics.

For some good shanty singing, why not try the Falmouth Shanty Festival - provisional dates for 2012 are 15th, 16th & 17th June - more here.
