Isn't the 8th of August supposed to be the National Submarine Day, or has it been changed?

Hi Big Bri,Strewth ,you guys are keen,will make next years event a two day job,I will also warn the Norfolk border guards at sutton bridge
the friendly forces are attending.With Norwich being a nuclear free zone,the local council wants any visiting modeller to power down
the reactor and disarm any weapons,honest!!! next years regatta list can be downloaded for our website later in the year
We always run two events per year,one in May,the other in August,Thanks for the response anyway and hope to see you see at the next do

Regards Admiral Donuts
