Burgee Adorning Ceremony

[KevB]

For those of us near the Solent, why don't we, when the Burgees are delivered all meet up and have a boat party. We can raise our burgee's in unison. How about next weekend? BarryD should have his boat by then and make it his maiden voyage. ((He'll have to supply lots of the drink to celebrate) That's if he doesn't fall asleep) ;¬)

Folly Inn would make a good venue.

Good idea, but erm we wont have them by then, will we Haydn?

 

[BarryD]

KevB is a rotter...

I was tierd - and you kept plying me with lots of wine! OK party on the boat next weekend. SWMBO will kill us all twice if we break anything though!

Re: Re Logistical snag

Depends on what E means about next weekend. And also with the snail mail. I would think it will be Saturday 13 April realisticly before most of you have got them. Only about 22 SAE's so far. 30 flags on order at the moment. (Some want more than one) Holidays have knackered the Friday delivery so it's going to be Tuesday or so next week before they are here. I've arranged that they can be sent off to you as soon as they arrive. Though I'm in Portugul next week. Then course, have to order more next week for the late arrivals. Pauline and crew want about a dozen between them but not seen an SAE yet!!

Have you sent off Your Stamped. SAE and cheque. Yet.

Re: Re Logistical snag

Whats amazed me about all this is why has'nt Kim and co said anything or had any input. Have they ordered burgees for the magazines boats and will it appear on the forum pages. It all seems fairly pointless if it does'nt

 

[burgundyben]

OK

ok, shud be a float by then, hoping to go back in next Wed ish, might not be around on wkend of 13/14 but otherwise wood like to join Solent Based Communal Corporate Inaugural Esteemed World Wide Web Forum Page Burgee Hoisting Cermony.

Do we have a solent location? Folly Inn for lunch?

....specialising in over budget, late delivery project management...

Re: Re Logistical snag

No. No flags for Kim and Co. Not sure he can have one anyway. He's always shouting at me!! Besides, he's not really in the club is he. Just the bar tender or BOUNCER! <G>

Wot about the weekend of the 14th April given that we might not have our burgees by next weekend and some of us might be going to Rome to watch a rugby match

Re: 14th April?

Haydns´delivering mine personal like, so I´ll be the first with his burgee hoisted, sorry I can´t make an adorning ceremony in the solent, but I´ll brooch a couple of bottles of bubbly down here! Thats if Haydn´s got them with him!!!!!!

EErrrr. No yer not. The flag making man has buggered of to the pub. So no flags till after easter. However I have two here, with slight defects. Only defects really is. I negotiated bigger for same price. So I'll bring them along and we can practice Adorning Ceremony till we get it right. Well thats if Colin has enough beer for all the retakes!!
