North Wales Frostbite meeting.....

[LittleShip]

As the winter months draw near and some (not all) put their boats away for the winter there are many who continue to go cruising.

For all those interested and still have use of their boats in the North Wales area please add your name to this thread if your interested in a November meet at Victoria Dock around mid month (dates and tides need looking at)

Personally I'm in and I think a marina is best bet so we can use electric to keep warm.

How about a table in the Chinese there, we tried it a couple of weeks ago and it was fine. We could call it our early Christmas Bash...........

Philiz should be able to get a good few on the rear of their new boat, Mucky Farter is in need of some forum abuse.....which will save on wear and tear on Little Ships decks.

I wonder if Lambarda will turn up or be turned away again for being too big

Looks like we will finally be able to make one of these gatherings (provided we can get somebody to look after the pets for a night or two).

 

[Philiz]

Count us in! Chinese sounds good too. We can fit a fair few on the back, might be a bit parky though for sitting outside!
I reckon Lambada can be accomodated at Carnarfon, we could start off on MF then move on to Lambada. Mmm, that's probably just made sure Lambadas tender will be making an appearance again!
Lawsy, take yer dog with yer, he'll be warm at night!

 

[Philiz]

Can this post be made a sticky? Anyone know how to do it?

And what do I do with the cat? Before you reply, think very carefully - Sue does occasionally read some of these threads!

It's no probs. With the two M Farter patented patio heaters and the diesel blow around thingy, we'll be warm as toast.

Hi Tom, after a great run out on Saturday down to Port Dinirwic from Conwy my boat is being lifted out next Friday. But we are planning to sail to Doc Victoria in a yacht from Conwy on the 28th/29th November, I hope that ties in with your plans, would be great to have a night out but I appreciate it is probably later than you are hoping for in the month, I will watch the thread develop.
Best regards.

 

[Major Catastrophe]

Yes, I may honour you all with an appearance.

The chinese is called Foo's. Foo owns the blue series nine two pontoons down from Philz.

 

[Philiz]

Does that mean we get neighbours discount?

 

[LittleShip]

OK there seems to be some interest so lets work to a date to make it easier..

Saturday November the 7th 2009

I think the tides should be OK that weekend without any early or late runs!

Tom

PS Can somebody just check the tides as I have no tide tables with me!

Fraid that's us out too, wont be down that weekend, the doggies don't like bonfire night. Yes, I know Bonfire night is Nov 5th, but you know what I mean!

 

[deborahann]

well, lets try for a date all can do. Can't be that difficult surely. At least is not PD with those (horror !!!) ladders.

 

[Philiz]

Any weekend from the 14th Nov up to Christmas is okay for us!

Big tides this weekend so little uns on the 14th
So 09.00 ish latest lock in Sat ish.
Or 15.30 earliest later.
So lock out Sunday best at 1600 or an early breakfast.

Based on lookin out the window at the moon and 30 years of guessing.
Good innit

 

[hlb]

Well that dont look so good for the 14th then, we need a bit bigger window.

 

[sagiatt]

newbie/both feet in it

New to forum and North Wales boating but up for the meeting
if appropriate.
Can offer passage (from Menai) to anyone whose boat is out of water - not
benign - may need help finding Caenarvon!

21st November?

 

[hlb]

21st November?

Thought I'd posted this before, but as usual the system lost it.

Subject to Debs hospital stuff, any day will do.

If we can get out of Conwy and go to the Prince Madog, that will do, but doubt we can tie up without help. Is the crew there all the time??
