[Wiggo]

couldn't we just rearrange the deckchairs?

[duncan]

any particular group of 4 young ladies in mind?

Can't start any earlier surely - we've managed a quorum by 2000h on the Friday night in Yarmouth on both occasions so far (despite weather that has turned back somewhat larger craft....../forums/images/icons/smile.gif)

For those that can't remember the Saturday weather has been crap both years - but the Sunday's' have come up trumps.

I stand suitably reprimanded, how about a live band, maybe forum members

Live band

I can see it now - Howlin' Haydn and the Kings of Bling.

On (Sea) Bass - Gonfishing
On Lead Guitar - Kim ('cos he pulls the strings)
On Keyboards - well, everyone, really
On Vocals - Yer man, with backup samples from Harry the Donkey
On percussion - Gordon Brown ('cos he'll make a satisfying thump when we throw him out of the window)

What about the set list?

No particular place to go (my plotter is on the blink)

Michael, row the boat ashore; I can't get the effin' outboard to start

We will rock you (by passing very close to you, just above displacement speed)

...and so on. Should be a blast

You may have driven there by car, but I came by boat (and had to rescue somebody from the water on the way!).

From memory, about 27 of the boats actually arrived (out of about 31) so the majority of people did come by water I'd guess

This time I'm going to fit my "Off road" 4X4 props (just in case)

Must remember to get mercury to put a tank trap just under the waterline on the berth they assign you. We can't let a fine tradition be spoilt after all! <g>

Some music would be good .... just background stuff (then we can turn it up when Led Zep comes on!!!)

Welcome back!!!! OK, I'll put music on the wish list, and we can decide if it gonna be background, string quartet, live music etc. Any votes anyone. String quartet will bump up ticket price - not cheap to hire

[Col]

I vote background, with option to crank it up if req'd
