Re: Clyde \"muster\"

Thank you!!!! Had a couple of sails now - first sail had me shaking on every creak and noise from the rigging - terrifying
 
Re: Clyde \"muster\"

Ah ken that Brendan but Romeo Bravo is more appropriate as those are the initials of my boat and I do carry "dangerous goods".

are you coming or what? even though you give the impression of being a sassanach, I'm sure there would be a welcome in the hills for you - might even arrange a dram or three.

Fleet Review - Kilchattan Bay

Right.
Looks like Cliff is to be the Flagship. I've got the deck space, so I'll be the Charles de Gaulle. Sgeir can be the Victory (Shard has spent about as long ashore as her!)
I'll dress the kids in black and send them off in the dinghy to tell everyone, "You can't park there!"
We can then form up into two lines and throw stuff (empty beer tins, full bottles of Schofferhofer) at each other to commemorate Trafalgar. Or maybe a good Scottish battle. The 326th anniversary of the Battle of Drumclog for example which was a much nicer battle since no-one got hurt much. Okay, it wasn't sea-battle, but it's hellish boggy up there. Sorry, I'm wandering a bit here. There's an engraving of that battle in a well-known pub that a good few of us know well... anyone?
I'm only trying to keep this at the top of the page!
 
Re: Fleet Review - Kilchattan Bay

I asked Kim to hold it at the top for a few days but seems us in Scotland don't rate the same privileges as those down on the south coast. /forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif

If it were a south coast "muster" it would have been stuck in #1 place for a week or so as happened in the past. /forums/images/graemlins/mad.gif

I'll post more links tomorrow once "Clyde muster II" drops off the page. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Re: Fleet Review - Kilchattan Bay

I display posts by time of last posting - so any thread that is active keeps popping to the top instead of disappearing down the pages.
I'm away from early Wed until late Friday so would like to try and get organised asap - any further ideas?

Re: Clyde \"muster\"

Sassenach! how dare you sir, I'm celtic, or in other words Welsh (what's Gaelic for Welsh?) and as much as I'd love to make it, I unfortunately cannot.
 
Re: Fleet Review - Kilchattan Bay

Bar-b-que on the beach near the hotel saturday afternoon early evening, drinkie poos in the hotel after then return to boat(s?) for more drinkie poos (cheaper than hotel) depart Sunday morning ish.

I plan to arrive around lunchtime or shortly after on Saturday and chill out for the afternoon with a bottle or two of "vino collapso" before sending SHMO to start the bbq.

Open to other suggestions....... /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif

Re: Fleet Review - Kilchattan Bay

Sounds like a good plan to me. If we stay over we'll have to scoot sharpish on Sunday.
What's the fall-back plan re BBQ, since it's gonna piss down? If there are only a few of us, we could do a "boat-crawl" with snacks / the BBQ stuff at each boat.... is that too complicated?

Re: Fleet Review - Kilchattan Bay

Hope to make it down myself folks!

E-Boat with celtic knotwork, and dragon on bow
So we can all meet in my saloon if raining /forums/images/graemlins/crazy.gif

Seldom many boats there so I should figure out who is who

Looking forward to meeting you all

Might have to head back up Saturday evening though


Regards
Cameron
 
Re: Fleet Review - Kilchattan Bay

Can do a boat crawl if weather poor. I'll bring the sprog as "water taxi driver". So see you all there sometime Saturday afternoon?

Re: Fleet Review - Kilchattan Bay

Right, Cameronke, you should be easy to spot with all that fancy artwork. You can represent the Itlalian Navy. I'll fade into the background of AWBs as usual.
Looks like I'll be be fielding the whole family plus a visiting sprog. No probs, got enough cabins/DVDs/books to keep them happy once the partying starts.
Anyone got a CD of Kenny Rogers' greatest hits? Just thinking about a bit of a singalong for later, that's all...... /forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif
 
Re: Clyde \"muster\"

Can I put my name forward to be considered for any available berth at the next muster since I am committed (should be?) elsewhere for this weekend? It's also a bit far for me to sail for a BBQ.

Might I also take this opportunity to plug my latest blog entry?

Erm !! How about the last week in July............... that should give me time to get there? /forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif

[/ QUOTE ]Why not? - that is in about a months time. Why don't you propose one nearer the time? - I don't know where I'll be from one day to the next.

[/ QUOTE ] Bit far? Where are you coming from? I thought Kilchattan bay would be reasonably central for those Clyde based?
