In Shotley this evening HO5 if anyone is around, looking for wisdom on which stopover for Ipswich tomorrow evening?

Have had a an excellent sail today have the glowing red faces to show for it. In a change from the convention SWMBO says

"let me put the main sail up I need the practise"

No problem light of my life I will turn us into the wind.

Ok dearest we are head to wind haul away

Yes sweetness your doing fine 2/3rd only little way to go

Yep your almost there you can winch the last bit

SWMBO "Holy */*/***@ what was that"

It had only been a week since we had sailed but it was with great surprise and merryment when a birds nest landed on SWMBO having come out the end of the sail bag Oh yes along with four eggs

There is a god afterall

/forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif /forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif you couldn't arrange that if you tried.

Sorry about the eggs though /forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif

I really don't like Neptune - the loos are across the road - it seems souless. If I go to Ipswich again I shall try the Haven. I have seen some comments about dust from building works.

It's normally me bragging about mid-week sailing - damn it not this week. /forums/images/graemlins/ooo.gif
 
I believe there are several nice forumites in Haven /forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif /forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif

And the dust from the building site isn't a problem if you are just stopping over /forums/images/graemlins/smirk.gif
 
I seem to remember comments that Haven was/is better but you know when the neighbours change things can go down hill rapidly.

D3B how long have you been a berth holder there??????? /forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif /forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif
 
Others are right the Haven has much better facilities many more dedictaed visitor berths a chandlery, a resturant/bar and a club which serves food. It is abit further to walk into town though. The building works have largely been finished or others mothballed/not started yet -- Was there ever demand for that many flats in Ipswich !

Regards
