Alderney 2 2012

[plaicemat]

O/k, it gets harder each time but I think I've cracked it. If Charlie has two requiring accommodation, according to my calculations that's 10 people requiring rooms. Mark is full, as is the Fleethouse so no joy there or my other bankers in the town. However, I can get 6 in one near the harbour and 4 in another in a similar location so, all o/k.

 

Please let me know a.s.a.p. if this is o/k.

 

Terry.

Sorry guys, but I will have to drop out. I have to be at work on Tuesday.

 

So, JV will not be going to Alderney.

 

Alun, I see you have already made other arrangements to crew for someone else.

Rob, you will need to do the same.

 

For me, this is probably the end of my attempt to get to Alderney this year.

[great white]

Sorry about that Rob

 

All sorted with the crews now I believe, and thanks to Terrys hard work the lads that need it have accomadation.

 

But I think there is a space available on Mrs Sea if anyone else wanted to come

 

Lets hope the weather is OK

 

Mainbrayce are still looking after us with fuel and water taxi prices.

 

Charlie

[Matt]

Well good luck to those who go!

Don't supposed anyone would like to pick up a rod for me while over at Alderney

If anyone wouldn't mind, I will order and pay for the rod at advance.

Thank you Charlie, I've just rang Mark, ordered and paid for the Kenzaki 12-20 3 piece, it will be waiting for you on your arrival.

Thank you very much for the help.

Much appreciated,

Kam

The following have ordered for Monday night at Reas Bistro (aka The Moorings):

 

1)Alun, chilli

2) Ben, chilli

3) Greg, rib eye

4) Craig, rib eye (steak? bit risky for you, mate)

5)Ashley, rib eye

6) Terry, rib eye

7)Charlie, rib eye

8)Dan, rib eye

 

As I have had to submit the order, I have taken the executive decision to order rib eye steaks for any others not shown above. Hope that is o/k, if not, tough titty. Or let me know if you are veggie or something.

 

Terry.

[Rob]

 

Thanks Terry - RibEye is good for me!

 

Martin / Kam - I will ensure your kit is fully tried and tested!!!!

[Maverick Martin]

Thank you Rob you are far to thoughtfull

[Rob]

With weather this hot, any chance of getting a bathing platform fitted tomorrow Charlie?

[plaicemat]

Sounds like somebody wants to be thrown overboard somewhere en route for a quick dip. Any volunteers, Charlie?

 

Terry.

[ospreyman]

i know i am being piccy - but could someone turn the wind down about 3 tommorrow afternoon- without affecting the folowing days!

thank you in anticipation

greg

Terry

I think Dan's choice was;

Dan ...... Kiln Farm beef burgers, plain ir chilli and coriander.

 

Martin

Would you like to just call Mark and pay over the phone, you could wait until you know we are there if you want to be sure.

But if we do not make it I am sure Manta Ray will

 

Rob

The boat was designed by Dan so that you can lower the centre chain at the back and run from the cabin, over the engine box and straight over the stern.

There is a ladder on the back to get back onboard, providing that you can swim at 20 knots to catch us up.

 

"Hands to bathe" mid channel would add another story to the long list we already have after 4 1/2 years

good ideas, if any bits fall off, you can take it straight back.

Thanks Charlie I'll do that on Sunday

Its gonna happen this time, well done lads and well done Terry.

 

Martin, I'm taking the boat down to Guernsey to catch some Herring of all things with Fie, plus fuel up and have a nose round Sark so won't be in for the call, Monday good though or the very least drop an email with what you want so it goes and pay later.

 

What channel will you be on guys when you are over here? Need to sort ice for some of you, just thinking I'll be carrying ice so when we get back can give you that and the rest is at home in the freezer.

 

Have a safe crossing guys.

[Rob]

 

Mark - we will be on 6.

 

See you very soon,

 

Rob
