Laying Down Supper - End of Season Meeting

[FullCircle]

Magna Carter has intimated that he is feeling lonely, and would wish to commune with his fellow East Coasters.

It is therefore proposed that a late season weekend meeting for the 7th-8th October at West Mersea should see us all into the Winter.

Current eating venue suggested is the Company Shed, but how about a specially laid table or three in the WMYC. It looks to be a nice venue, and they serve real beer too.

Replies for numbers below if you wish. Be delighted to see you all again.

Full Circle is in then.

Magna Carter is in, skipper plus crew and 2 ankle biters

 

[moondancer]

I should be there. Our 24ft demonstrator is sold and we should have the 29ft demonstrator to use by then. Need to think up a name for it though..

 

[FullCircle]

Well done Brian.

Filho da Puta?

Fray Bentos?

Mara Dona?

 

[moondancer]

It would be good to start with a P or W to continue the ....of Paglesham or ....of Wallasea tradfition. With a bit of flair and Spanish / argentine connection. Maybe a forum competiition...

Be good to see you again, as if I need another ale partner........

be good to see you /forums/images/graemlins/shocked.gif

 

[FullCircle]

Dave, feel free to join us on Full Circle for the night. If you can make it the weekend, come down on the Saturday morning to Burnham, and be delivered back to Burnham Sunday.
Or just join us at West Mersea. There are a fair few B&Bs , but not much in the way of taxis post bar!

 

[Sixpence]

Great stuff thanks , although it will be both me and Louise , we'll leave the kittens behind though , are you sure ? .

 

[FullCircle]

I am serious, and dont call me Sure(ly).
Did you want to do the whole trip, or just the Saturday Evening?
That will be great, we will have the Staff make up the aft stateroom.
I do hope you aren't vegetarian or teetotal.

 

[Sixpence]

Excellent thanks Jim , we'll be aiming at the trip too , but as we're both complete novices when it comes to rag and stick it could be a little shaky . She's now decided to bring her shopping trip forward , new outfits and deck shoes first , first ? , we haven't even got life jackets and she wants a new outfit
Oh and definately not veggie , and we'll bring a 24 pack or two , that's for me /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

 

[moondancer]

'Hand of God' is looking good

 

[Koeketiene]

Gone very quiet on here!

Is this thing still happening? If so, looks like Guapa could/will make it.
