SPEEDTRIPLE Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 Hi all, Karen and i will be afloat on Lighning for the first time for the above week. Is anybody else going to be afloat the same week, We`ll probably play safe for the first time and stay on the Southern rivers. Also, there will only be Karen and i onboard, so it may be a good idea to stay south, as if anything happens at somewhere like Gt Yarmouth, i`l be the only one to deal with any emergencies. If anybody IS afloat that week, please come and say hello, all are welcome. Regards and best wishes to all ................................... Neil.

SPEEDTRIPLE Posted October 3, 2014 Author Share Posted October 3, 2014 Bed for Friday night, Neil? Hi John, That`s very kind of you, but we`ll be in Kent on Friday visiting my Brother then staying with my dad, Will you be on board over the weekend or ashore?. If ashore, lunch at the Hockam Eagle sounds nice?. It would be great to know what boats peeps have, and what they`re called so i can keep an eye out for everyone?. I know Pauls boat, and yes Paul, we`ll make our way down there around that time, so hopefully, we`ll see you there?. I still have your number, so i can give you a bell or text. It`s only 2 weeks away now, so we`re really looking forward to it. The only thing is, we MUST remember to take some bedding with us. Lightning does have duvets blankets and pillows,but we have to take our own linnen etc. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted October 3, 2014 Share Posted October 3, 2014 I also take a bathroom mat to step out of the shower onto-it's the little things that make all the difference It also stops the carpet getting wet and you can dry it on the "towel rail" in the 3rd shower as that heats up from the engine! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That`s actually a good idea, and leads me to think about things differently. As a hirer for nearly 40 years, i`ve got well and truly used to hire boats and their equipment etc, but having your own boat is a completely different thing. I guess we`ll live and learn though, and will soon get used to knowing what other things to take if nessecary Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
