Winter Meet ?

[oldgit]

silly olde me

Fancy me thinking that any boaty meet mentioned on a boaty forum would involve any b***s moving around up there between the Autumnal Equinox and Michaelmas.

'course there's nothing to stop you coming up by boat to show us all how it's done, but do mind the islands......

Don't forget Bray is closed until the end of Feb and numerous other closures in between. Fortunately I'm not trapped bewteen two locks this year for most of the winter so might get a few trips in.

Don't worry. Fred's only bluffing.......does he really think we'd organise a successful rally by boat in February? Wouldn't be a get together - more a 'meal for two' methinks !

 

[DogsBody]

I was actually hoping to be able to go by boat...subject to weather and the usual flooding.

Why not have a vote on Which month? Feb is a long way away....

 

[Andrew_Fanner]

Tempting but would need to persuade SMBO to drive.

 

[boatone]

At the moment we're trying to gauge how much interest for such an event and the acceptability of location.

We can have a good old fashioned forum punch up about dates later - I only said 'maybe February' !!

Not sure I want to do it now....still sulking over MikeT's comments in another thread.....

Having been given a tip off about this topic and seeing the second comment i would be more than happy to put some wine on your tables to welcome you all back to Boulters. If somebody wants to give me a call to discuss details if you settle on a date then please ask for me personally and i will take care of it for you.
Kind regards
Paul Dennis
Boulters Restaurant

boatone - have you decided whether to proceed with a winter meet up?

 

[rosssavage]

Pauldennis, thank you for that generous offer, once the other lot stop their infighting and decide, I'm sure they'll pass on their appreciation too!
Cheers, Ross

On the basis of the response to the poll, I am trying to contact Paul Dennis at Boulters with a view to seeing what we can arrange for a Saturday evening (first choice) or Sunday Lunchtime in February.
