Hockham Admiral Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 Just a proposal at the moment but I'm hoping to organise a Summer Meet at Beccles on 21st July. It would follow the format of last year's but hopefully not the weather! (Not that anything seems to stop us having a great time!) That was bring your own food and share the barbies that those who have them bring... and there were plenty even in the torrential weather we had! (Under gazebos) All will be welcome! Watch this space for when I've talked to the HM there tomorrow! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 john ill have a word with the rest of our team see what they think ... depending on what time we get the boat i think we could get there late evening gunning it over breydon if the tides are with us ... but to get there late evening & for everybody to be going on the sunday might be a waste of fuel & effort on our part which is a shame .... jonny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As with last year's meet if I go it would only be by car. I could arrange to pick you up in the wagon from somewhere up north, e.g. Acle Bridge or Stracy Arms, drive you down to meet up with the gang for the evening, and then drive you back to Challenger if that would work out better.
