Sarfend Air Show
      #743020 - 24/05/2005 08:39

Who's gonna be there then?
We hope to be there at about 11.00am on Monday. If anyone else is about how about nominating a radio channel.
No throwing things at us (unless its money or drink for Cheryl).

Yes--subject to weather on Monday, i.e. not p*****g down with rain etc. I'll be on one of those white plastic things with a big metal pole coming out of the middle and material attached to it. Tides suit quite well for coming down from Chatham so we are aiming to be there around lunchtime. Name a VHF channel.

This is for when the engine breaks down is it?
Seriously, love yachts, I grew up sailing from the BP Yacht Club (when the refinery was there) and would still jump at the chance, we'll probably buy a sailing dinghy soon just to get back into it.
We're coming down from Chelsea and then going on to Cuxton.
Give you a call on 72?
