Has Spring sprung for you?

Post by Discus »

It seems that it's all still quiet on the (South) Western front! Has the weather caused as much grief to others as it has to us? What are people up to with their boats? Is anyone alive out there? :?

Punxsutawney Rob (still in hibernation!!) :oops:

Hi Terry - also champing at the bit but still reeling from this years climate failure!!Was in Plymouth this weekend but the wind literally left me with a bad ear ache - wish I hadn't bothered!!! Launch for us will now be early May if we are lucky as we only picked the keys to the new boat up on Saturday. I get the feeling Jeff may have totally rebuilt his boat by now - he's like a rat up a drainpipe!!!

Hi Rob

Whats the new boat ? I knew you were buying one but didnt know you had .

The forecast for last weekend was meant to be pretty good but turned out rubbish :roll: It really let us down :evil:
Looks like its going to be the same as last year weather wise .

All being well we'll be back in the water and blogging before the end of the month.

We're having some lovely weather up here - doesn't sound like you're getting the same stuff! We'll bring it down with us like last year.

See you on the water...
