Wonderwall Posted June 6, 2015 Share Posted June 6, 2015 Hi folks Coming down from Scotland on the 1st July with my wife and two kids. Picking up radiant from HB and hoping to get under bridge, if not will just roll the dice! Can't wait. I've been a broads addict since I was taken by my grandparents at 4, so over 40 years, though of course not every year. Let me know if anyone has hired the ex connisusseur before, and give me a wave in July Tick tock! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which part are you from? The ex Porter n Hayletts Connos have more chance than most getting through that hole, so an Expliot has said many times on Forums. We expect...nay demand a Holiday Tale and photies too! Have a great holiday. A wee tip, phone the PH Pilots Office a few days before you wish to attempt passage through the Bridge to see if its a goer or not. Iain.

Wonderwall Posted June 6, 2015 Author Share Posted June 6, 2015 for the welcome folks. I'm originally an edinburgh ( mon the Hibees!) lad, but now live in sunny ? Kinross. I meant Herbert Woods, don't know why I put HB, must be the excitement of my fix getting closer. I'm sure you all worked that out! Just watching andy Murray , and thinking when he won Wimbledon we were moored at Womack and my lad done a wee jig on the boat with the St. Andrew's Cross when he clinched it. Happy days indeed! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
