Thames Forum Meet 13/14 September at Windsor

Had to give the old grey matter a good shake but seem to remember the last Thames Forum get-together was at Windsor in 2011.

Is it time for another one?

As you have gone all quiet...assume you got killed in the rush ?

I was holding my breath but now realise it could seriously damage my health !

Will TT-WO be going?

 

[Blackfeather]

I'd be up for this, if newbies are accepted.

No such thing as a newbie - if you're a registered member of the forum you will be welcome! Dont even need a boat although coming by boat is part of the fun. Will need to know who you are though.

Would be better when season calming down again, maybe sep/oct?

Every time I have met somebody as a result of a forum get together, the result has usually been positive. You usually have a vision of a particular poster which turns out to be totally opposite to the chap/lady you end up shaking hands with.
Anybody who feels strongly enough about a subject to come on here and put his point,is somebody worth holding a conversation with.
The world is full of dull people, boating usually attracts interesting ones.

Yeah, first Medway trip done, now back to annoying unc tone.

Maybe a Forum rally to somewhere. Here even.

 

[No Regrets]

All sounds good, even Louis looks happy these days!

We did that a few years ago - a good event, even Old Git came by car with forum burgee flying

 

[TrueBlue]

Yes, a good idea at any location.

Cant do all the way up there as much as I would like, would have to be in the staines-Henley area.

The chances of me being able to come would decrease dramatically if it's upriver from, say Cliveden. Otherwise it would be a matter of building a "proper cruise" around it, if dates were to happen to fit in with the myriad constraints of Work, School and Family life!

I don't think I fancy coming by car somehow.

We have suggested a rally at Byron's place - and we know he loves having boats at the end of the garden - but your response was quite a general concern regarding distance so we have settled for Windsor for last two where both MDL and the WYC were very supportive and hospitable. Managed about 20 boats in 2011.
Could also consider Penton Hook where I believe PHYC could also be approached to host us.
Usually early September so will need to get organising if we are to do it this year.

 

[Sulley]

I'll come out and play!

You may not get an answer from PHYC - they are difficult to contact
