Bob F Posted January 23, 2012 Report Posted January 23, 2012 It guess the dates in the club calendar were just a place holder that Coddy entered back in 2011. So, the calendar needs to be changed to 11-14th. I think we are all onboard with the 11-14th dates, agreed? Quote
Bob F Posted January 23, 2012 Report Posted January 23, 2012 Jim, Weather permitting, weather permitting. But, yes, I'm quite excited at the prospect! Quote
great white Posted January 23, 2012 Report Posted January 23, 2012 11th to 14th sounds right to me Bob are you sleeping onboard or with the bunnies?? Charlie Quote
Bob F Posted January 23, 2012 Report Posted January 23, 2012 I think Rob might be sleeping on board. I'll be in a proper bed, and not with the bunnies!! Quote
Maverick Martin Posted January 23, 2012 Report Posted January 23, 2012 Calendar dates changed Martin Quote
Rob Posted January 23, 2012 Report Posted January 23, 2012 I think Rob might be sleeping on board. I'll be in a proper bed, and not with the bunnies!! I'll look after JV then! TBH - I will sleep on the way (waking only for wrecking) and whenever possible between marks! Those bow cusions at 18knts are just dandy! If I can sleep on Gastronaught.....i can sleep anywhere. Rob Quote
Matt Posted January 24, 2012 Report Posted January 24, 2012 I suspect i'll be made to skipper whilst dad sleeps on the way across, im just hoping its smooth conditions! On the positive front though my seat has been refitted so if we do come back in a 4-5 and a bit of 6 forecast i wont be sat straight on fibreglass! 3 1/2 months ish to go.........,., Quote
great white Posted January 24, 2012 Report Posted January 24, 2012 Talking of seats Matt. I must try to remember to oil mine prior to the trip. Or its squeeking may keep the poor crew awake while I drive for 5 hours like last year. [Not going if weather as last year] Quote
Matt Posted January 27, 2012 Report Posted January 27, 2012 That reminds me of the noise the drivers seat on our warrior 175 made when at anchor. A horrible kreak kreak that used to drive me mad (oddly it never annoyed the person sat in that seat just the poor sod sat next to him) Quote
Matt Posted February 14, 2012 Report Posted February 14, 2012 Only three months to go- looking at new tents and sleeping bag Quote
Maverick Martin Posted February 20, 2012 Report Posted February 20, 2012 Below is the up to date of boats planning on going to Alderney this year. Any others interested? and is there a list of crew that would like to go? if not start one now so the boats can make appropriate arrangements 1. "AWOL" 2. Wight Magic 3. Alfresco 4. Phaeton 5. Serenity (recovery dependant) 6. Free boys 7. That bloke from brighton who I will not mention in case of the jinx striking again 8. Abode Craig Ashley + ? favourable conditions only. 9. That bloke from eastbourne who dearn't plan anything so the jinx dont have the time to strike. (may be see 7 above for duplication?) 10. Sweet Chariot II 11. Manta Ray 12. Joint Venture Quote
great white Posted February 21, 2012 Report Posted February 21, 2012 I believe that 7 and 9 may be the same My crew will be Dan, Gordon and Nigle, which will fill us up nicely, but leave a space in reserve for Sam, should the Navy change his ships program at the last minute to let him join us. Bring it on [Oh and some nice calm weather] Charlie Quote

Ben Posted March 8, 2012 Report Posted March 8, 2012 ha ha ha ok Jim I thought it was a all inclusive holiday Quote
plaicemat Posted March 8, 2012 Author Report Posted March 8, 2012 O/k chaps, it's that time again, who wants to eat where in Alderney. For the first night, I have spoken to a few people and none of those seem to want to eat at the Marais Hall on the first night. The concensus seems to be fish and chips or The Moorings by the Harbour. Let me know what you fancy and we can either leave that open or I can book places at The Moorings. Perhaps an alternative suggestion might be in order as we usually go to the Moorings on the second night. If everybody is happy, I will book our gala dinner for the Harbour Lights, as usual. So, to summarise: 11th May free or The Moorings 12th May The Moorings 13th May Harbour Lights. Make a list and put your preference for the first night. Presumably Charlie and Co. will be having an 'Alfresco' meal one of the evenings. Terry. Quote
ospreyman Posted March 8, 2012 Report Posted March 8, 2012 terry i will be first, totaly happy to be there and fit in with the consensus, greg ps not planning and not looking forward to it ect still Quote
Maverick Martin Posted March 8, 2012 Report Posted March 8, 2012 Terry Harbour lights sounds good to me with the moorings for one or other or both of the other nights unless there is another suggestion (not to far up the hill plz ) Dean will follow so long as there is beer and AWOL'S newest crew member will speak for himself Martin Quote
Rob Posted March 9, 2012 Report Posted March 9, 2012 I am not keen on traditional fish&chips so I will go wherever TeamJV fancy going. Rob Quote
plaicemat Posted March 9, 2012 Author Report Posted March 9, 2012 Rob, the fish and chips option was not intended to be bookable so that would come under the 'evening free' option, then I only book for those who require it. I don't think there is anything else that doesn't require a hike up to the town but if anyone has an alternative suggestion for the first night, spark up. Terry. Quote
alun j. Posted March 9, 2012 Report Posted March 9, 2012 Count me in for the Harbour Lights on the Sun....... and the Moorings for the Sat. I like the walk up the hill...... and enjoy a steak at the Marais Hall; so that will be my preferred option for the Fri. Quote
