Got my passport stamped to cross the Trent,
All I have to do now is book the campsite and
check camping gear. (not used for a while)
Hope the weather gods will give us better weather than today,
at the moment its thunder & lightning.
not sailing weather.  :((

Right ho chaps, back from my travels, finished decorating the hall its boat time. I have booked my camping (until the Monday on the firm belief its going to be really sunny) and to celebrate Stavro's forthcoming nuptuiles  O0 O0. S :-))o with just a few weeks to go  I have been dusting of the boats, trying to find all the bits of Radio control stuff that I need (hummm) well I think I need, but of course getting the most important thing ready....the tea urn  :-))
traight running will of course once again be the main focus  (yeah right)  with shouts from the crowd such things as "I thought they were supposed too go straight" and "poor chap has he not heard of radio control"   so no different from last year then  {:-{
And of the course I will have a pile of Mayhem swag with me (T shirts and sweatshirts) so bring some of your earth pounds.
Right time to fill the caravan with beer and boats
