As the winter months draw near and some (not all) put their boats away for the winter there are many who continue to go cruising.
For all those interested and still have use of their boats in the North Wales area please add your name to this thread if your interested in a November meet at Victoria Dock around mid month (dates and tides need looking at)
Personally I'm in and I think a marina is best bet so we can use electric to keep warm.
How about a table in the Chinese there, we tried it a couple of weeks ago and it was fine. We could call it our early Christmas Bash...........
Philiz should be able to get a good few on the rear of their new boat, Mucky Farter is in need of some forum abuse.....which will save on wear and tear on Little Ships decks.
I wonder if Lambarda will turn up or be turned away again for being too big
Tom

Count us in! Chinese sounds good too. We can fit a fair few on the back, might be a bit parky though for sitting outside!
I reckon Lambada can be accomodated at Carnarfon, we could start off on MF then move on to Lambada. Mmm, that's probably just made sure Lambadas tender will be making an appearance again!
Lawsy, take yer dog with yer, he'll be warm at night!

Hi Tom, after a great run out on Saturday down to Port Dinirwic from Conwy my boat is being lifted out next Friday. But we are planning to sail to Doc Victoria in a yacht from Conwy on the 28th/29th November, I hope that ties in with your plans, would be great to have a night out but I appreciate it is probably later than you are hoping for in the month, I will watch the thread develop.
Best regards.
OK there seems to be some interest so lets work to a date to make it easier..
Saturday November the 7th 2009
I think the tides should be OK that weekend without any early or late runs!
Tom
PS Can somebody just check the tides as I have no tide tables with me!
Fraid that's us out too, wont be down that weekend, the doggies don't like bonfire night. Yes, I know Bonfire night is Nov 5th, but you know what I mean!

Big tides this weekend so little uns on the 14th
So 09.00 ish latest lock in Sat ish.
Or 15.30 earliest later.
So lock out Sunday best at 1600 or an early breakfast.
Based on lookin out the window at the moon and 30 years of guessing.
Good innit

You never dress normally......sandals in the winter hats in the summer
There is only one lock per day at Victoria during the winter period....... jeeze Debs it could all end up at PD and you will have to suffer the steps :-0

That's the work boozy do. Saturday night is dinner for 10 people (plus Sue & me) who are particularly close friends & most of whom can't get into Manchester on the Friday afternoon.

oh no not the ladders !! have been I told have a cantancers spur, or similar, so its official. I really do have official heel pain, at the docs tom. to have hopefully something sorted. Hey lets sort a date, this is getting daft.
If it's the 14th, and IF I put it in the calendar now, there's a good chance that MrsG and I could attend - need to let you know for sure 1st week in Nov.
Can dab some diesel behind our ears & pick up some bling from Elizabeth Duke if it helps us fit in with youse mobos.
Just how many ounces of gold-effect per limb is de-rigueur these days?
I dont think you need to let anyone know. It's just a case of finding the best date for most folk. It'll never be perfect.
Yes, you will need the gold earings and tattoos to fit in, or you'll have nothing to talk about. The conversation is mostly about who's got the biggest one.

No point to a Kwacker looky likey comp. It'd be too easy for many of us!
So you'll be attending eh Searush? Not too far for yer is it!
Look forward to meeting you at last
Well the boats only just round the corner, it's just a question of whether I will be any closer than my usual 110 miles! That depends on family commitments as usual. You'll know me when you see me, but I will have my clothes on.

Just remember that Foo does not do discounts for anyone, not even his staff.
Just as long as he can cater for the 'Vast Number of Forumites' then that will suffice.
Mal
and this sounds ominous
Went to look at yer boat yesterday, but were not sure which one, till you posted the pic. Then we got locked in the boat yard, for what seemed like ages.
On release we went for a ride on the little railway. What a swizz, they should be done by trades discriptions, it only went about 30 yards round the back of some houses, then came back. It was just like british rail though, the driver said how difficult it was, because the track was slippy today and took all his powers of concentration.

Hi Guys.Thanks for the call Tom good to speak to you again.
As Lambada will fit into Victoria Dock and as (unlike most) I dont have the benefit of Seafairing Attack Weasels, Pigeons, Budgies etc this would leave me extremely vulnerable and with no excuse to prevent you rabble from actually setting foot on my boat therefore I am afraid I will have to pass on this one.
Sorry! but I do have other plans that W/E but hope you have a great! time.
Cheers
Andy

That's really odd, I hadn't noticed sagiatt's post until now! You are more than welcome to come. If you do take Kawasaki as crew, lock up any booze you may have on board. Your best bet is to give me your key to the liquor the moment you get to Vicki Dock.
That's really odd, I hadn't noticed sagiatt's post until now! You are more than welcome to come.
Oopps! after all we try and do to introduce people, especially newbies and we all missed the post, Oh dear oh dear oh dear!
Sagiatte....let me apologise for the over site, it wouldn't by any means have been done deliberately. I have sent a private message with a little information that will be required for the dock on the 14th.
Once again sorry for the over site......... I think we should blame H, it's got to be his fault?

'Friad I'm fairly unlikely to make the 14th at the mo. But I wouldn't be moving round to the dock anyway as I have a paid for berth next door in the river.
Anyway, 3 weeks is a long time in boating (to misquote some politician or other) so we will see what turns up.

So wat we want to know. Were going down to Conway about Saturday the seventh. Mainly to avoid tides in the middle of the night. So maybe go Conwy to Thingy bridge then, P Denorwick. But if conarvon only open one tide, or Denorwick as well. Surely the times have to change from mornings to evening tides at some point..
So 1/ A phone number for Mark, aint found one onthinternet. So what is it.
2/ A phone no for Denorwick. Do they have an evening opening?? Or not.
Being as were not good at getting up in the middle of the night. Has anyone got some reaonable advice.

Need to be at Swelllies 2hrs before HW Liverpool; don't want to go through Swellies in the dark, so need to be there for 07:00 on the 14th. Should be able to make Victoria Dock before it closes. Won't be able to get out of Conwy marina on morning of 14th in time to be at Swellies for 07:00 so it's either out the night before, pick up a mooring in the river then a VERY early start on 14th, or out Friday a.m. and pick up a mooring in Menai Bridge before dark (don't want to be roaming round amongst the fish farms & floating ironmongery after dark). To get back, need to be at the Swellies again for ~07:45 Sun, but hang on, the dock doesn't open 'till then so need to get out the night before... but hang on, it only opens once a day So I need to leave before I've arrived !

IN THE CAR!
Will (hopefully) see you all there, but will confirm next week.
Reckon the best thing you can do is hook it on the back of MF while HLB aint looking
Well theres no probs there then. But. I've all ready realised the tide problem. What pillock picked the 14th.
So our solution is to go to the boat tomorrow, then set off some time next week when we can go round at our leasure. Long or short way, aint decided yet. MF is not fazzed about a few poxy little Welsh waves.
Any ones welcome to hitch on the back, then just get dragged around a bit, one way or tother.

Your quite right, poxy Welsh waves, or any other nationality are seldom much trouble, it's the sodden great lumps of Welsh rock underneath them that are the problem. There might even be a lump with MF written all they way through!

Yer daft bugger, dont yer kerno. MF's built of stronger stuff than steel or diamond's, her props are honed to rock cutting perfection, the smoke would disolve the rocks anyway.

Never mind the tow rope, get the brooms, boathook & bucket of slops. DogWatch is trying to muscle in
Some people just let the whole world pass them by & then wonder why they know nothing. I've just had a PM from him asking about the meet. It seems he never looks in on the MoBo forum & is therefore in need of edification.
I have pointed him in this direction & hereby serve warning on the rest of you.
Let battel commence!
Actually, I rreckon he will ge quite a useful gang member, someone to divert the flack off HLB, Kwaka, Little Ship, & me!
Edit
How cool is that; I get to post #200 on this thread. Is there a prize for that Kwaka?
