Just a quick note to dispel rumours about (some) of our colleagues from the wrong side of Hadrian's Wall. Alistairr popped over on Sunday with Kirsty, and despite the fact that the tides meant we couldn't get out and show them what 'real' boating's all about, they still left us with an unexpected, and very welcome drop of something.

Cheers, mate! Very nice to meet you both.

oh dang! He cd've come over to the folly on d2 and listened to me swearing at the stern garage, the kids and anyone else. I wd've liked to hear how his path is progressing too. Not real boating though perhaps?

Cheers Graham, I only wish we had time to stay and enjoy a swift one with you.
BTW, Lovely boat and Lovely Family . Also those Toys look fun, Did you manage to rig up the sailing dingy??/forums/images/icons/laugh.gif
When we got back yesterday, we drove straight from the airport to Largs to look at sealines/forums/images/icons/crazy.gif, almost full range cause of Prossers open weekend. Lovely boats.

We will hopefully see you again later in the year.

Thanks again.

Alistairr.

A trip in D2 would be nice. Also i'm not that bothered at people swearing, actually quite used to it up here.
Glad to here you arrived ok, must have been a fantastic trip.
How long are you and D2 staying over here for?

Great stuff, Did you have a go?

Is it big enough to be an Adults toy? Or is it just for the kids?

No, I didn't get near it. I was consigned to boat cleaning duties. But it is big enough for adults to sail/windsurf on.
