Could we have a Cumbria meet?

[Lakesailor]

Not half as afraid as they are of you! /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

 

[Croak]

So, were going to have a Cumbria meet in Lancashire?

 

[Lakesailor]

It's a good point.

There's loads of nice spots a bit further North.
Kirkby Lonsdale, Arnside, Penrith, Grange over Sands (?)

Where it does all fall down a bit, is meeting to have a jar when you are all driving. It's a bit risky if you do drink, and a bit pointless if you don't.

 

[LittleShip]

HLB knows where it is, he braved it out once before?

Glasson is great, if not coming by sea! I'd need to leave Fleetwood 2 days earlier to make the HW+1 lock time! <grin>

But being serious - I'd certainly make the run up there to meet a few forumites.

 

[Lakesailor]

I got my last-but-one boat from Glasson, it's a nice spot.
My point was that, unless the lockpit pub and ozone fix is important, it's 5 or 6 miles less for everyone to meet near the M6.

 

[LittleShip]

OK somebody choose a date and lets get drun....errrr /forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif together, I still vote for Glasson they need the money and I can stay there? /forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif This month anyway!

[Croak]

That's me out then. Over 2 hours drive and £30 diesel /forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif

 

[hlb]

Garstang is much nicer than Glason, loads more boats there to. Bit of a hike off the M6 though.

I know...............Blackpool!!! /forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif

 

[Lakesailor]

Hope your chartwork's a bit better. Garstang is alongside the M6.
Still a trip South for me but so is Glasson so it doesn't really matter. See Here

Can I respectfully suggest that the way you are all P--ing about with this proposed event makes me wonder how you ever get out of port? /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif

Make it Alston, 35 mins drive and I'll come.

Alston? I haven't got snow chains.

 

[Lakesailor]

If you all registered on http://www.frappr.com/ybw#x=-2.17&y=53.88&z=9&t=0
then we'd be able to see where the central spot was.

 

[claymore]

Moving things along a little

Now that you all can't decide on where to meet - hows about you try to disagree on when it should take place?

 

[hlb]

Suggest you ckeck yer own chartwork.

Wheres the junction!!! /forums/images/graemlins/crazy.gif

 

[Lakesailor]

Good grief, You want jam on it. Admittedly you have to come off at 32 or 33 but it's on the old A6 so it's not exactly a country mile (well, it probably is)

 

[hlb]

Ok so Garstang it is then. Theres a pub right in the canal basin called. The Old Tyed Barn. See you there Saturday, um 2pm.

Snow chains? You don't need them. Just bring your wellies; the sheep can't run very fast and you don't have to restrain them.
