I only just found the Netflix series on F1! It’s a fascinating alternative look at how F1 operates, not unlike an adrenaline filled soap opera! I thought the race was good on Sunday, but miss the live presentation.

My own view is that these old gaffers put a Chinese gybe into the mix for badness. It would scare those who knew and mystify those who didn’t. ⛵️

I think we will be out on White Moth on Sept 3rd 4th 5th can’t wait!

Yes I remember Chablis, nice boats!

Agreed

The May date is too soon to do the NBN meet. Later in the year sounds much more realistic. What can happen now is that the planning can get going and give people something to look forward to. Watch this space.

I have got started on tidying up the garden. Today, however, I just got out a chair on the patio and enjoyed the sunshine.

How did Robin get aboard? 😋 Nice boat no sails. 😐 At 1000nm range how do you refuel mid Atlantic? I loved the Spirit yacht they took up The Grand Canal in the Bond movie, now that had proper stuff like masts and sails.

I remember seeing the stuff in the British Museum and being bowled over by the beauty of the shoulder clasps and belt buckle. Phill and I went to Sutton Hoo a few years back. It’s very atmospheric

Not a problem Griff. I think planning for some positive experience is good for us. Lads week (once you all recover) is no doubt one such time. 😊

Yes I watched the Time Team interview it was very interesting.

I watched this Netflix movie last night. It was brilliant, I thought. Sutton Hoo brought to life, and Rafe Feinnes producing a creditable Norfolk accent, apparently Diss was the reference.

A write up, certainly, a BBQ with whoever is afloat by then, hopefully.

I gather it may be possible so I am hopeful

I think we all need something to look forward to in these times. My hope is to fulfil a long held wish and hire White Moth for a weekend. I really hope this can happen.

Luna Rossa have a foil technique that is gaining them 2 meters or so every tack. That can’t help Ineos.

Ineos have been awesome in the Prada Cup! Did you see the USA capsize?

I used the CC at Eastwood Whelptons you book via the boatyard. It’s at Upton with direct access to the Dyke and a great village pub. The field is quite exposed in windy weather, so check the forecast. I saw CC provision at Hippersons Beccles too that is right on the river.

Only when the gas bottle isn’t empty!!! 😘

Richard Tearl that is, Rick H or Doc Ruth are the only other possibles. I know Richard T attended the funeral.

I recall Paula but never met her myself. I think Richard may be the best person to respond to Alana. Sad. I think she was about 11 when her mum sadly died.

Many thanks Steve. I forgot when I won the tiebreaker against Nik that I had arranged a Zoom talk for the WI on ‘Sex scandals and secrets of the Royal Court from 1660 to 1830’ by a speaker on the Hampton Court Team! WI is usually Thursday but we moved nights to accommodate this speaker. 😋

Is it worth getting the fridge door powder coated, Griff? Got the racks done from the caravan fridge cost was either £40 or £60 (not sure which) and they look new.

Sorry to read your sad news John. Once the death certificate is issued you do what Neil B says, use the Tell Us Once service. Leave all paperwork and accounts untouched and hand over to her solicitor. It is the responsibility of the executors to do all the arrangements. Rufus is best off where he is and you and Taxi can move to Nyx 2, cats are fine with boats. There is no hurry to do any deciding. Take your time my friend. You are stronger than you think.

Hold on!! That picture is from Clive’s database and shows a woman who no doubt has nothing to do with the issue!
