Just to remind everybody that this is the next CVRDA event, I already have 12 booked for the dinner

, please contact me asap if you haven't done so already - menu will be emailed shortly as you have to choose before the night.
B & B (Â£55 per dble or twin room, Â£75 family room)to be booked direct with the New Inn, Lechlade 01367-252296
Sailing possible on Saturday or just drop the boat off, 2 races on the Sunday 11.30 & 1.45 - separate start within Club racing.
Only limit on sailing : no cats (sorry Alan

)& max 5m length (I think)
We have 120 acres so it is a bit bigger than Chippenham by the sound of it !
Looking forward to seeing a good turnout on 6th & 7th November
Hot food available all day

Just to bring this topic to the top again! Kathryn and I booked a room for Â£50 last week, (no kids, hooray!) and they still had rooms left. I take it this means no one else has remembered to do it yet - hurry up, we don't want to be all lonely drinking in the late bar... (actually, no idea if there is one, but you get the idea!)

I'm afraid that Lizzy and I will not be able to come.

We are going to be in Spain

. Just as well for you guys as I would have to race the canoe, which could be very scary and possibly dangerous [:0]

I booked at Â£55 a couple of weeks ago. Did you haggle or will I have a better view.

More likely they gave us the wrong price...or we are in the broom cupboard!

But as the Canoe is 5180mm long you would not qualify!

I'm sure that soon after the start the canoe could well have been shortened

Would love to see a pic of you upright. Lovely bottom though.

there are some pictures on my website (link below) Once there, scroll down and click on the canoe button on the left.

Nice boat! I'd seen her advertized and was too much of a coward to go for it...seeing the pics, I wish I had, now! But once a coward, always a coward, I think!

Thanks Rupert. You can have a go whenever you want, and then I'm afraid I think you'll really regret it. Its just so much fun to sail (well it has been so far!!)

Fully intent to be there on the Sunday, if I still have a suitable boat, but regret the Saturday evening is not possible

Regards

Nick - you are planning on getting a replacement classic, aren't you?

Lois and I booked a room and another for John and Lyn a few weeks ago. Maybe I'll check a few days before. Sounds odd.

Rupert. You bet your ass ! I've already been tempted by several, but need the space first - hence the need for the Finn to go. So far only timewasters.
