It's the old Offshore mould that Warrior bought to produce an offshore boat. It will be fitted with twin outboards unlike the diesel which was originally fitted. I believe it's the same as Tom Smith's boat Illusion. Terry.

Steve Porter has just posted that for anyone travelling to the Channel Islands there is the requirement to quarantine for 14 days which means that his trips to Alderney will not be possible. He is doing a passenger delivery to Guernsey and Alderney next week and is not allowed to go ashore. So far, there have been no cases of coronovirus in Alderney and I guess they want to keep it that way. Terry.

Stingray will be available for hire at reasonable rates and she goes under the bridges. 😁

I've just seen on the news of a guy who targeted an old man with dementia and offered to do shopping and relieved him of £400.00. See, initiative, get thinking. 😉😁

I'm getting concerned, is anyone working and paying for my pension? Just asking! Terry.

Hopefully, they have been instructed to show common sense during a difficult and busy period. Terry.

Lucky it's quality but, knowing Ian, any port in a storm would do. Terry.

I will look forward to the results of your plaice hunt with great interest. Terry.

You can expect to buy a lot of beer for the older hands! 😉😁

You could be a very useful addition to the club, didn't you used to be a weather man? Welcome, keep an eye on the website for people wanting crew, as you're retired there will be mid week opportunities with the Old Gits Brigade. Terry.

Well, that's put me in my place, I promise not to try anything mildly amusing at your expense again. Terry.

Martin has a lot to answer for. 😉 Terry.

Ok, everyone who is confirmed on the trip now has accommodation and has been advised where they are billeted. If anyone else decides to make the trip, let me know as I have a few spaces available. Terry.

Alderney Angling is now full but I have two other places that I am waiting to hear back from. Will update soonest. Terry.

You were first to ask so are in, of course. Terry.

There is obviously going to be more beds required than I have so I will endeavour to secure more. Watch this space. Can anyone else requiring accommodation please let me know ASAP. Terry.

Ok, Mark has been a bit difficult to get hold of but has now touched base. I have 9 beds at the newly named Ramblers B & B (Alderney Angling as was), 4 of which are taken so, 5 beds left. This is for the 1st - 3rd May inclusive, i.e returning on the 4th. Terry.

I think Veronica would probably rather keep Martin than get another boat. Terry.

On it. Terry.

I suspect our kayak maestro, Lofty, will join in, he is the go to fella for you. Terry.

I don't know them that well, Colin. 😚 Terry.

I've heard there are cod about, apparently a charter called Katfish has been having them off the Island. I could be tempted. Terry.

And a big Terry.

A very Happy New Year to everyone, may 2020 bring you calm seas, sunshine, as many fish as you can reasonably enjoy and encouragement to follow your dreams, whatever they may be. On a personal level, I shall be striving to ensure that I can deliver a similar message again this time next year. Cheers!

Bit presumptuous Jim! Terry.
